The authors have assembled here a comprehensive and up-to-date textbook on Barrett's esophagus and esophageal adenocarcinoma. The section on the management of esophageal adenocarcinoma is brief and clearly directed to gastroenterologists rather than surgeons or oncologists.
Increasing cases of gastroesophageal reflex disease (GERD) and its most sinister complication, Barrett"s esophagus and esophageal adenocarcinoma has prompted the need for this authoritative text dedicated to the disease. The link between this disease and gastrointestinal cancer has quickly become one of the hottest topics in Gastroenterology, making Barrett"s Esophagus and Esophageal Adenocarcinoma the most timely one available. The authors have assembled a highly distinguished group of physicians who present the most up-to-date and clinical-relevant information in this premalignant lesion. The clinician, the teacher, and the investigator will appreciate the very recent evidence about the burning issues of Barrett"s esophagus and the current approaches to patient management.
