Diseases of the Colon
This first reference to comprehensively address both the medical and
surgical management of diseases affecting the colon, this source spans
the wide array of colorectal disorders including rectal prolapse,
irritable bowel syndrome, benign and malignant colonic tumors, fissures
and ulcers, and Crohn’s colitis, among other ailments. With chapters by
world leaders in the field, this guide analyzes diagnostic and imaging
techniques for disease evaluation and management including advances in
colonoscopy, radiology, and surgery.
The aim of this book at its inception was to integrate knowledge from
two specialties allied to colorectal diseases. This was achieved
successfully by cooperation between coloproctologists and
gastroenterologists in compiling each chapter in a succinct manner with
equal emphasis on the relevant condition….It provides an in-depth guide
to the coloproctologist on how a gastroenterologist would approach a
problem and vice versa, thereby optimizing patient care with a
multifaceted approach. This book provides a pertinent guide for fellows
and residents on how one should manage colorectal conditions. The
inclusion of various scoring systems relevant to colorectal conditions
provides a valuable research tool for academic trainees…The contributors
comprise an array of medical talent from centres throughout the world
and as a result it reflects a global view on diseases of the colon and
rectum
