Rezensionen

*4 stars* "...a compact but comprehensive book that covers a broad spectrum of benign esophageal diseases that cause dysphagia, lavishly illustrated with radiographs and manometric studies. [A] truly multidisciplinary approach, this is a book for specialty physicians and physicians in training (surgery and gastroenterology) . [F]ollows a logical organizational structure and is highly readable -- it lends itself not only to reference but also reading to enhance one's overall knowledge. [L]ogical and complete, an excellent, compact, highly readable book that will be of use to physicians and trainees who encounter patients with dysphagia. It will serve as a companion resource for surgeons, who will find it a useful reference to supplement, but not replace, surgical texts. --©Doody s Review Service, 2023, Carol Scott-Conner, MD, PhD, MBA, MFA (University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics)
