About this book

This book elaborates on a whole new understanding of digestive endoscopy, the core of which is to treat quite a number of diseases using minimally invasive methods, provides the walls of the digestive tube are free of perforations. Currently, the tunnel technique has been applied in the treatment of digestive early stage carcinomas, esophageal achalasia and submucosal tumors originating from muscularis propria. And this promising technique would surely be more widely used in the future. The main contents of this book include the history of the digestive endoscopic tunnel technique, the practical anatomy involved, operation steps, indications and contraindications, complications and possible future exploration fields. This book is well suited for doctors and surgeons performing digestive endoscopic therapies.

Reviews

From the reviews:

“This is a short book on the techniques, indications, and outcomes of the various applications of a peroral approach to motility disorders of the esophagus and masses of the esophagus and stomach. … It is clearly written for advanced therapeutic endoscopists who have the appropriate skills to perform an endoscopic mucosal resection and are considering extending their practice to the treatment of esophageal dysmotility or noninvasive masses of the esophagus or stomach. … a timely book on the different pathologies that can be addressed endoscopically.” (Peter N. Nau, Doody’s Book Reviews, November, 2013)
