This project will cover the diagnosis and treatment of esophageal
diseases in a concise and easy-to-read format. Pathophysiology,
diagnostic evaluation, treatment and strategies for avoiding and
managing complications are included and based both on
evidence-based data and the experience of the Editors and the
roster of international contributors. Each chapter will describe
the current diagnostic and management strategies of the disease
process and simplified operative approaches with relevant technical
considerations will be outlined in an easily understandable manner
for the specific target audience. The text will be illustrated
throughout by easy to understand illustration line graphs that
depict fundamental anatomic or technical principles.
Surgical Management of Benign Esophageal Disorders: The "Chicago
Approach" covers all stages of the diagnosis and treatment of the
most common benign esophageal disorders in a concise and
easy-to-read format.Indications, patient preparation, operative
techniques, and strategies for avoiding and managing complications
are included and based both on evidence-based data and the
experience of the most famous esophageal surgeons in the United
States and abroad. Each chapter includes a summary of the current
management strategy for the disease process, and a review of
current state of the art techniques provided by world leaders on
esophageal disease, surgeons and gastroenterologists alike. A
special emphasis is given to emerging procedures in laparoscopy,
thoracoscopy, and endoscopy. Surgical Management of Benign
Esophageal Disorders: The "Chicago Approach" is illustrated
throughout with line diagrams that depict fundamental anatomic or
technical principles and is a valuable resource for surgeons and
gastroenterologists in residence and training.

This book aims to review all of the literature, including landmark
papers and the most current published data, in regard to the
management of non-malignant foregut diseases. A number of surgeons
publish and focus in malignant diseases of the esophagus, but this
text emphasizes the benign ones, their problems and how to face
them with the new available resources and technology. This book
describes the different diagnostic tools available, as well as the
different therapies for the management of gastroesophageal reflux
disease (GERD) and its potential complications like Barret's or
strictures, and the associated anatomical abnormalities such as
hiatal hernia or short esophagus, and more. Motility disorders of
the esophagus, esophageal diverticula and perforations are also
discussed. Different devices and approaches can be used to treat
these diseases and they are covered and explained in different
chapters of the book. Written by experts in the field, Benign
Esophageal Disease provides surgeons and physicians with a concise
and comprehensive summary of the current state of the field and
will help guide patient management.

Each chapter describes a very specific aspect of Achalasia by its
known expert. Current diagnostic and management strategies of
Achalasia, as well as the simplified operative approaches with
relevant technical considerations, are outlined for the specific
target audience.The treatment of Achalasia is complex and usually
performed in specialized tertiary-care centres. The Editors' main
goal is to render this disease more understandable and accessible
to residents, fellows, and specialists in both the surgical
disciplines (general surgery and thoracic surgery) and in
gastroenterology.

Dysphagia: Diagnosis and Treatment of Esophageal Motility Disorders
provides a interdisciplinary overview of the diagnosis and
management of dysphagia and other esophageal symptoms. All aspects
of dysphagia are covered, with detailed consideration of both
physiology and evaluation methods. Hot topics include coverage on
the pharmacological causes of dysphagia, the physiology of normal
swallowing, ambulatory pH monitoring as well as recurrent dysphagia
after treatments. The content is grounded in evidence-based
medicine that is the result of clinical outcome research, both
prospective and randomized, making this the perfect reference for
clinical researchers and a go-to for general surgeons, foreguts
surgeons, thoracic surgeons and gastroenterologists.
This book provides a state-of-the-art description of the clinical
evaluation, diagnosis, management, and treatment of achalasia,
gastroesophageal reflux disease, paraesophageal hernia, and morbid
obesity. The prevalence of such diseases is increasing worldwide
due to higher awareness and improved diagnosis rate. The text is
divided in three different parts, each covering detailed surgical
techniques of the main foregut operations: achalasia,
gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and obesity. Written by
experts in the field, chapters focus on the preoperative work-up,
indications, and technical aspects of each operation. Foregut
Surgery proves to be an irreplaceable resource for surgeons,
gastroenterologists, medical students, and surgical residents that
care for patients with reflux, achalasia, and morbid obesity.
This Atlas focuses on surgical techniques used to treat the entire
spectrum of esophageal diseases. Surgical "pearls" and tips on how
to select and perform the correct operation are included and based
both on evidence-based data and the experience of the Editors.
Step-by-step descriptions of operative and endoscopic procedures in
esophageal surgery are provided. Each chapter describes the current
indications, perioperative management strategies, and a detailed
operative approach with relevant technical considerations. The
description of approaches and surgical techniques used in
esophageal surgery are outlined in an easily understandable manner
for the specific target audience. This book is written by
world-class internationally renowned esophageal surgeons and
gastroenterologists
