Oxford Case Histories in Gastroenterology and Hepatology cover

Based around the core curriculum for specialist trainees in gastroenterology and hepatology, this book contains 50 well-structured, peer-reviewed cases gathered from the Oxford Hospitals, comprehensively covering the various disorders of the gastrointestinal system. Each case comprises a brief clinical history and relevant examination findings, details of investigations including examples of medical imaging, followed by questions on differential diagnosis and management and detailed answers and discussion. The text is complemented by numerous black and white illustrations, including radiographic images, and 24 colour images. The question-and-answer format is designed to enhance the reader's diagnostic ability and clinical understanding.

A focused, easy-to-read and informative text... It is a fascinating insight into clinical gastroenterology, an excellent and enjoyable read and an education for all levels of gastroenterologists from ST1 to consultant. The fact that each 3-4 page case is completely independent means that it is an excellent book to browse and dip into in the spare 10-15 min that occasionally occur each day. * Gut, BMJ *
