Surgical Decision-Making in Gastroenterology: From Childhood to Adulthood
Surgical Decision-Making in Gastroenterology: From Childhood to Adulthood offers a comprehensive and clinically oriented exploration of decision-making processes in gastrointestinal surgery across the entire age spectrum. The book successfully integrates pediatric and adult gastroenterology, highlighting both shared principles and age-specific considerations that influence surgical planning and outcomes.
One of the major strengths of this work lies in its multidisciplinary perspective. By combining insights from pediatric surgery, adult gastroenterology, anesthesia, radiology, and perioperative care, the book provides a holistic framework for managing complex gastrointestinal conditions. Emphasis is placed on evidence-based decision-making, balancing surgical risks and benefits while considering anatomical, physiological, and developmental differences between children and adults.
