Bemerkung:

Over the last two decades, the field of pediatric gastroenterology has developed from an obscure subspecialty to an essential component of every major academic pediatric program throughout the world. Among the many pediatric texts available, none deals extensively with the pathophysiologic basis of gastrointestinal disease in children of all ages. Contributors to this text have been asked to undertake their writing with a plan to fill this void, extending pathophysiologic considerations to their coverage of diagnosis and management as well. In tandem with development of the subspecialty the literature of gastrointestinal and hepatic entities as they pertain to the pediatric patient has grown. Accordingly, we have prepared an approach to the subject that should provide a reference text for pediatricians, gastroenterologists, and pediatric gastroenterologists alike. Umschlag leicht berieben, wenige Textmarkeranstreichungen.
