Multidisciplinary Management of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
This book presents a new, multi- and interdisciplinary approach to gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and Barrett’s esophagus that reflects the latest advances in understanding of the disease. The role of each of the available diagnostic techniques, including endoscopy, histopathology, esophageal manometry, reflux monitoring, and EndoFLIP assessment, is carefully explained. The use of endoscopy for the purposes of mucosal ablation (radiofrequency ablation, cryoablation) and mucosal resection is described, and all aspects of anti-reflux surgery are covered, with detailed explanation of indications and techniques for standard fundoplication, endoscopic fundoplication, and surgical proced...
Als ich meine Mitte wieder fand
Dieses Buch erzählt die Geschichte von Nina Adlon, die am Höhepunkt ihrer beruflichen Karriere einen Zusammenbruch während eines Vorsingens auf der Bühne der Wiener Staatsoper erlebte. Nach einem Irrweg der Diagnosefindung wird ein ausgeprägter Zwerchfellbruch und eine Reflux-Erkrankung als Ursache gefunden. In der Folge erlebte sie einen für Menschen mit Reflux typischen Weg, welcher mit erfolgreicher medizinischer Behandlung eine glückliche Wendung nahm. Die Reflux-Erkrankung, die sich durch Sodbrennen, Rückfluss von Mageninhalt, Halsschmerzen, Heiserkeit, Zungenbrennen, Asthma, starken Magenschmerzen und viele weitere Beschwerden bemerkbar machen kann, betrifft etwa 25% der Menschen in der westlichen Welt. In einem immer persönlicher werdenden Zwiegespräch zwischen einer besonderen Patientin und ihrem Arzt, wird eine typische Krankengeschichte einer Reflux-Erkrankung mit einfach verständlichen fachlichen Kommentaren erzählt. In dieser Lebensgeschichte werden sich viele Menschen wiederfinden, die häufig und dies, seit Jahren unter ähnlichen Beschwerden leiden, geschwächt ihre Lebensperspektiven verlieren, ohne wirklich zu wissen, was ihnen fehlt.
Minimally Invasive Thoracic and Cardiac Surgery
It is now 20 years since thoracoscopic surgery first entered everyday hospital practice, revolutionizing surgery and offering major benefits to patients. The intervening years have witnessed rapid progress, with the development of a variety of specialized techniques and equipment. This superbly illustrated book provides authoritative and comprehensive descriptions of the various minimally invasive techniques that are currently employed in thoracic and cardiac surgery. A wide range of thoracoscopic procedures are explained and discussed, and detailed attention is also paid to robotic and robot-assisted surgical techniques. Throughout, the emphasis is on clear description of procedures and identification of practical aspects of relevance in surgical practice. The authors are some of the world’s most experienced thoracic and cardiac surgeons, and many of them have contributed greatly to the exploration and development of the field.

Innovation in Esophageal Surgery
Assessment of surgical innovation is complex. This is especially true in esophageal surgery owing to difficulties in interpreting pathophysiology, staging malignant tumors with accuracy, and standardizing and tailoring the available surgical procedures to the individual patient. This book introduces the general and the thoracic surgeon to the latest developments in esophageal surgery; in each chapter the reader will find a concise background analysis of the topic in question and a state of the art review of diagnosis and treatment. The indications for surgery and the rationale for use of an innovative technique or technology are discussed in detail. Challenging and provocative questions and comments by selected panelists complement each chapter, enhancing the quality of information. Innovation in Esophageal Surgery will be highly informative for both the novice and the expert surgeon wishing to enter the arena of esophageal surgery. A multidisciplinary team of experts offers an evidence-based approach and critical analysis: endoscopic, surgical, and hybrid surgical techniques that will soon change the approach to esophageal disease are described in detail.

Killing Cancer
Despite the efficiency of current cancer treatments, cancer is still a deadly disease for too many. In 2008, 7.6 million people died of cancer; with the current development, it is estimated that the annual cancer death number will grow to 13 million by 2030. There is clearly a need for not only more research but also more innovative and out of the mainstream scientific ideas to discover and develop even better cancer treatments. This book presents the collective works published in the recent Special Issue entitled “Killing Cancer: Discovery and Selection of New Target Molecules”. These articles comprise a selection of studies, ideas, and opinions that aim to facilitate knowledge, thoughts, and discussion about which biological and molecular mechanisms in cancer we should target and how we should target them.
The Physics of Cancer
An introduction to the emerging field of cancer physics, integrating cancer biology with approaches from theoretical and applied physics.
