The PANCREAS

The newest edition of the essential guide to pancreatic medicine

The fourth edition of The Pancreas: An Integrated Textbook of Basic Science, Medicine, and Surgery integrates the cutting-edge research of recent years to update its presentation of this fast-growing subject. It details every known disorder of the pancreas, grounding them in a thorough understanding of pancreatic function, enhanced with high quality illustration and graphs. It also includes step-by-step guidance for relevant endoscopic techniques and surgical procedures.

The Pancreas readers will also find:

  • New comprehensive insights into three pancreatic diseases: autoimmune pancreatitis, cystic neoplasms, and neuroendocrine tumors
  • An editorial team with decades of clinical and research experience in the US, Europe, and Asia
  • Over 500 downloadable illustrations for use in scientific presentations

The Pancreas is a foundational reference for clinicians and researchers in gastroenterology and gastrointestinal surgery.
