Summary

Atlas of Pediatric Gastrointestinal Endoscopy focuses on practical diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopy in children. The combining of pediatric endoscopic images with a practical guide to the performance of pediatric gastrointestinal endoscopy makes this volume a unique reference source. The extensive use of black and white line diagrams, color illustrations of endoscopic appearances, and complementary histopathology creates a definitive reference resource for pediatric gastroenterologists and pediatric surgeons. The combined medical and surgical expertise of the authors, garnered from renowned pediatric gastroenterology centers, incorporates both a North American and European perspective. The result is a work that is an integration of clinical gastrointestinal endoscopy with expert pathology
