The second edition of Clinical Dilemmas in Inflammatory Bowel
Disease: New Challenges, is a practical, up-to-date handbook
providing expert guidance on specific clinical dilemmas and areas
of difficulty that the gastroenterologist regularly faces in
day-to-day practice.
In this new edition, 75% of the ‘dilemmas’ are brand
new dilemmas facing the IBD specialist concerning emerging
treatment therapies, such as the use of cannabinoids and Viagra for
Crohn’s disease. The remaining 25% of the dilemmas are
fully updated from the previous edition, incorporating the latest
clinical thinking.
Each of the 57 evidence-based chapters contains clear learning
points, addresses different topics, and provides sound guidance on
subjects ranging from optimizing current management through to
special management problems and novel treatments.
This book is suitable for all medical professionals involved in
the care of patients with IBD: established and trainee
gastroenterologists, colorectal surgeons, pathologists,
radiologists, specialist nurses, pharmacists, dieticians and
counselors.
