For more than 50 years, Sleisenger & Fordtran’s Gastrointestinal and Liver Disease has been the definitive reference for gastroenterology and hepatology physicians, students and trainees, and the broader multi-disciplinary GI care team. Now guided by a new generation of leaders in the field, this two-volume masterwork brings together the knowledge and expertise of hundreds of global experts who keep you up to date with all aspects of GI and liver disease—everything from basic science to new techniques and technologies. A consistent organization, more than 1,100 full-color illustrations, and clinically practicable algorithms ensure quick access to updated and current information on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of gastrointestinal and liver diseases. The 12th edition welcomes a new senior editorial team of Drs. Raymond T. Chung, David T. Rubin, and C. Mel Wilcox, and features many improvements and additions.
Key Features

- New chapters on Gastrointestinal and Hepatic Manifestations of Coronavirus Infection; Enterocolitis and Hepatitis Induced by Cancer Immunotherapy, and a new section on Neoplasia Involving Multiple Organs
- Reliable coverage of a wide range of endoscopic procedures for diagnosis and treatment, including balloon dilatation, stent placement/removal, and the management of small bowel angioectasia
- Quick-reference algorithms that summarize clinical decision making and practical approaches to patient management
