This book focuses on Barrett¿s Esophagus (BE) a clinical condition that must be evaluated in
all patients affected by chronic GERD and with an important link to esophageal cancer. Divided
into four sections (morphological background epidemiology and natural history diagnosis and
treatments) this handy volume provides the latest indications regarding endoscopic approaches
(first level and advanced endoscopy) pathological studies (pathology and molecular biology)
and state-of-the-art therapeutic options (medical endoscopic and surgical) for BE. As such
it offers a valuable reference guide for all professionals involved in the management of BE
(gastroenterologists endoscopists pathologists and surgeons) offering them a comprehensive
overview and deeper understanding of this seemingly superficial disease.
