Advanced Techniques for Endoscopic Resection in the GI Tract

<p>Surgery has traditionally been the standard of care for the treatment of neoplastic lesions in the gastrointestinal tract. With advances in endoscopic resection techniques there has been a paradigm shift in how to approach many of these precancerous and early cancerous lesions. Potential advantages of endoscopic resection include its minimally invasiveness which often translates into quicker patient recovery.<br><br> In recent years there have been major strides in safety and efficacy of minimally invasive endoscopic approaches with ongoing advances in therapeutic endoscopy. <b><i>Advanced Techniques for Endoscopic Resection in the GI Tract</i></b> by Drs. Peter V. Draganov Takuji Gotoda and Dennis J. Yang provides an in-depth analysis of the current state of advanced endoscopic techniques for the evaluation and resection in the gastrointestinal tract. <br><br> Each chapter in the book addresses specific topics such as:</p><ul> <li> endoscopic evaluation of lesions</li> <li> technical aspects of the procedure</li> <li>management of adverse events</li> <li>post-procedural care and follow-up </li> </ul><p><b><i>Advanced Techniques for Endoscopic Resection in the GI Tract </i></b>provides a comprehensive review of all the different aspects of advanced endoscopic resection in the gastrointestinal tract which makes it ideal for interventional GI endoscopists and general gastroenterologists as well as surgeons.</p>
