Download or read book Diseases of the Esophagus written by G. Vantrappen and published by Springer. This book was released on 1974 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to be a synthesis of our current knowledge about the normal and pathological esophagus. Although a number of excellent monographs on limited aspects of esophageal pathology are available, a recent handbook treating the whole of esophageal physiology and pathology is lacking. We attempted to present the collected material in such a way that even the neophyte in the field would not get lost in the wealth of data. For this reason we have included a number of illustrations such as classical radiological and endoscopic images, manometric tracings and uncomplicated graphs, which may seem superfluous for specialists but will be helpful to the reader who wants to be initiated in the subject. At the same time we tried to be fairly complete so as to make available to the esophageal specialist a book of references, to which he can readily turn when faced with rare diseases or unusual physiological or pathophysiological pheno mena. In order to achieve both aims the authors often give their own point of view when faced with controversal topics, while classical as well as more recent features and concepts are mentioned and diverging opinions discussed.

Download or read book Clinicians Guide to Oesophageal Diseases written by Stephen P. Wilkinson and published by Hodder Education Publishers. This book was released on 1998 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gastro-oesophageal reflux is one of the commonest chronic medical disorders affecting the western world with nearly 10% of the population seeking medical advice at some point in their lifetime. Certainly it is by far the commonest organic dyspeptic disorder, being at least four times as common as peptic ulcer. Interest in the disorder has mushroomed in the last decade both because of easy availability of specific investigations and the development of dramatically effective medical treatment - the proton pump inhibitors - while the advent of laparoscopic fundoplication has resulted in a resurgence of interest in surgery. There is now almost universal recognition that adenocarcinoma of the oesophagus is increasing in incidence in the western world more rapidly than any other tumor. Usually it is secondary to Barrett's oesophagus, itself a result of long-standing gastro-oesophageal reflux. Thus gastro-oesophageal reflux is not always a benign disease. This book focuses particularly on clinical aspects of gastro-oesophageal reflux, but also includes sections on other common clinical oesophageal problems including motility disorders, non-cardiac chest pain, neoplasms and the place of the oesophageal laboratory in the district general hospital.
