With the advent of endoscopic techniques, the gastrointestinal tract has now become more accessible to clinical investigators. Polyps are amongst the commonest abnormalities biopsied and submitted for histological assessment. The biological behavior of a polyp relates entirely to its pathological nature and accurate histological diagnosis is therefore vital. While so many textbooks and atlases include polyps in sections on gastrointestinal tumors, none have been so comprehensively devoted to the polyp as Gastrointestinal Polyps.
The layout of the book has been designed sequentially to describe the commoner synonyms when appropriate, the prevalence, the endoscopic/macroscopic appearances, and microscopic features followed by a section on the biological behavior and associated conditions. There is a section on treatment, if applicable, and an invaluable list of key references. Profusely illustrated in full color throughout, it is designed to be the complete companion: a bench book not only for the practicing histopathologist who regularly examines oesophageal, gastric, duodenal, and intestinal polyps as part of his or her daily work but also for the endoscopist who regularly biopsies them.

Verified PurchaseI am a first year student pursuing MBBS. I am really grateful to medioks for being student oriented. I was looking for a book but I couldn't find it anywhere in the market. The high demand of the book made it very costly to afford online but when I found it on medioks, I was so happy to get? the original book at a reasonable cost.
