Download or read book Atlas of Esophagus and Stomach Pathology written by Scott R. Owens and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-09-06 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Atlas of Esophagus and Stomach Pathology provides an image-based resource for those studying normal histology of the upper gastrointestinal tract, as well as the microscopic manifestations of developmental abnormalities, toxic insults, infectious diseases, inflammatory and autoimmune conditions, and neoplasia in the esophagus and stomach. Because modern gastrointestinal pathology practice centers on specimens obtained during endoscopic examination, the atlas focuses on biopsy pathology, providing “real-world” microscopic images and ancillary diagnostic studies for most commonly-encountered abnormalities and diseases affecting these two organs. The book is supplemented with endoscopic and special study images. Authored by nationally and internationally recognized pathologists, Atlas of Esophagus and Stomach Pathology is a valuable tool for both pathologists-in-training seeking to make “new acquaintances”, and practicing surgical pathologists in need of a quick visual reference in recalling “old friends” in the world of diagnostic gastrointestinal pathology.

Download or read book Diagnostic Atlas of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease written by Parakrama T. Chandrasoma and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2011-08-29 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gastroesophageal reflux is one of the most common maladies of mankind. Approximately 40% of the adult population of the USA suffers from significant heartburn and the numerous antacids advertised incessantly on national television represents a $8 billion per year drug market. The ability to control acid secretion with the increasingly effective acid-suppressive agents such as the H2 blockers (pepcid, zantac) and proton pump inhibitors (nexium, prevacid) has given physicians an excellent method of treating the symptoms of acid reflux.Unfortunately, this has not eradicated reflux disease. It has just changed its nature. While heartburn, ulceration and strictures have become rare, reflux-induced adenocarcinoma of the esophagus is becoming increasingly common. Adenocarcinoma of the esophagus and gastric cardia is now the most rapidly increasing cancer type in the Western world.At present, there is no histologic test that has any practical value in the diagnosis of reflux disease. The only histologic diagnostic criteria are related to changes in the squamous epithelium which are too insensitive and nonspecific for effective patient management. It is widely recognized that columnar metaplasia of the esophagus (manifest histologically as cardiac, oxyntocardiac and intestinal epithelia) is caused by reflux. However, except for intestinal metaplasia, which is diagnostic for Barrett esophagus, these columnar epithelia are not used to diagnose reflux disease in biopsies. The reason for this is that these epithelial types are indistinguishable from "normal" "gastric" cardiac mucosa. In standard histology texts, this "normal gastric cardia" is 2-3 cm long.In the mid-1990s, Dr. Chandrasoma and his team at USC produced autopsy data suggesting that cardiac and oxyntocardiac mucosa is normally absent from this region and that their presence in biopsies was histologic evidence of reflux disease. From this data, they determined that the presence of cardiac mucosa was a pathologic entity caused by reflux and could therefore be used as a highly specific and sensitive diagnostic criterion for the histologic diagnosis of reflux disease. They call this entity "reflux carditis". In addition, the length of these metaplastic columnar epithelia in the esophagus was an accurate measure of the severity of reflux disease in a given patient.At present, there is some controversy over whether cardiac mucosa is totally absent or present normally to the extent of 0-4 mm. While this should not be a deterrent to changing criteria which are dependent on there normally being 20-30 cm of cardiac mucosa, there has been little mainstream attempt to change existing endoscopic and pathologic diagnostic criteria in the mainstream of either gastroenterology or pathology. The ATLAS will be the source of easily digestible practical information for pathologists faced with biopsies from this region. It will also guide gastroenterologists as they biopsy these patients. - The American Gastroenterological Association claims there are 14,500 members worldwide who are practicing physicians and scientists who research, diagnose and treat disorders of the gastrointestinal tract and liver - According to the American Society for Clinical Pathology, there are 12,000 board certified pathologists in the U.S. - Adenocarcinoma of the esophagus and gastric cardia is now the most rapidly increasing cancer type in the Western world - Approximately 40% of the adult population of the U.S. suffers from significant heartburn and the numerous antacids advertised on national television represents an $8 billion per year drug market
Download or read book Pathology of the Esophagus written by H. Enterline and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first of a planned series of texts on pathology of the gastrointestinal tract. The authors have long thought that texts on pathology ofthe gastrointestinal tract tend to cover the clinical aspects, pathophysiology, and radiology in a rather sketchy fashion. The pa thologist is often left with an incomplete understanding of the problem at hand. Indeed, even the pathologic aspects of diseases of the esophagus are given relatively short shrift in textbooks on gastrointestinal pa thology. In an effort to rectify this situation, the authors have culled infor mation from a wide variety of sources to describe in greater depth than usual, the clinical pl"esentation, diagnosis, and pathophysiology, and the morphologic aspects of esophageal disease. While the book is pri marily geared for pathologists, it is expected that this volume will also be an aid to internists, gastroenterologists, surgeons, radiologists, and other clinicians who wish to gain a better understanding of the path ologic processes involved in the many clinical conditions in which esoph ageal dysfunction is a factor. Pathologists are being challenged by new diagnostic puzzles in the esophageal area; it is hoped that this text will assist them in meeting these challenges. The esophagus tends to be neglected in autopsy examinations despite its important contribution to human illness. Much remains to be learned.

Download or read book Atlas of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy and Related Pathology written by Klaus Schiller and published by Blackwell Publishing. This book was released on 2002-01-28 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Endoscopy is the principal tool for the investigation of most disorders of the gastrointestinal tract. All practicing gastroenterologists must be able to perform the technique for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Successful endoscopy relies upon a grasp of what to do and how to do it (details of which are also found in books like Cotton and Williams) along with the ability to recognize abnormalities and diagnose disease. This book provides a very large collection of high quality images of normal and abnormal endoscopic appearances. Parallel pathological photomicrographs, together with a detailed running text, offer an approach not previously attempted. There are major chapters on the upper and lower gastrointestinal tract and on endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). In addition there is a chapter on the rapidly developing field of enteroscopy. The contribution on endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) will be of special interest to gastroenterologists and radiologists. There is also a chapter on "Getting the most out of your pathologist," explaining in some detail the pathologist's potential contributions. All chapters, as appropriate, include sections on technique and on therapeutic aspects of endoscopy. A special feature of Atlas of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy and Related Pathology is the extensive use of clear explanatory images: many of the endoscopic and radiological, and all the pathological and endosonographic figures are accompanied by annotated black-and-white corresponding figures. developed and expanded from the highly successful first edition, published in 1986 over 1900 figures over 1200 high quality endoscopic images parallel pathological photomicrographs diagnostic and therapeutic aspects of endoscopy includes the developing fields of enteroscopy and endoscopic ultrasonography full range of annotated explanatory images
