Riassunto

This is a survey of all aspects of the digestive system: mouth, oesophagus, stomach and duodenum, pancreas, small intestine, colon, rectum and anus. Extrinsic signs such as arthritis and malnutrition are also illustrated and described. Modern investigative techniques such as fiberoptic endoscopy, computerized tomography, monoclonal antibodies, scanning electron microscopy have been used to help depict each system and diseases such as Aids, "campylobacter pylori" gastritis and cryptosporidiosis and their effect on the digestive system are described. The book contains surgical specimens and histopathology in addition to the 500 colour photographs. Barium studies, CAT scans and arteriograms are also included. The work should be of interest to junior hospital doctors, general physicians and general practitioners.
