Evaluation and Management of Dysphagia : An Evidence-Based Approach

This book is a comprehensive, state-of-the art review of various esophageal disorders 
and will serve as a valuable resource for clinicians, surgeons, researchers, 
and trainees with an interest in the management of patients with dysphagia. The 
book provides an exhaustive literature review of all the current evidence behind the 
diagnosis, evaluation, and management of various esophageal disorders and provides 
the reader with evidence-based algorithms written by prominent clinicians 
and researchers in the field. 

The chapters are organized so that the reader systematically learns how to recognize 
and narrow the differential for dysphagia followed by advances in diagnostic 
tools and includes the most up-to-date information about medical, endoscopic, and 
surgical options for patients with dysphagia of various etiologies. We are grateful to 
the contributors and hope that this book provides insight into this commonly 
encountered symptom and can pave the way for an evidence-based approach to taking 
care of this patient population.
