内容説明

Challenges in Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), is a book for gastroenterologists, surgeons and for trainees who know the tried and tested information, but now want to know about the areas of controversy in this fast- moving area. This book seeks to avoid rehashing the information found in the established dogma from other sources by focusing on the current issues that have practical relevance to the management of the disease. Unlike journal review articles it covers the whole spectrum from investigation into the scientific basis of the disease through to its management and prognosis.
