Diseases of the Gallbladder and Bile Ducts

Pierre-Alain Clavien

With the increase in liver transplantation and also living-related liver donor transplantation this new edition addresses the biliary indications for these procedures, as well as biliary complications of these procedures. It's divided into three sections including anatomy, physiology, and epidemiology; diagnostic and therapeutic approaches including the latest therapeutic modalities; and specific considerations. It includes more than 250 illustrations for rapid reference and each chapter now has a Q & A section and begins with a list of objectives to help quick diagnosis.
