Reviews

This book details management of upper GI malignancies using laparoscopic and minimally invasive surgical approaches. The audience is the chief, fellow, or faculty member looking for a technical atlas or information on these approaches. There are no other books I am aware of with an author list like this one or that is as well written. (James J. Mezhir, Doody's Book Reviews, May, 2015)
