Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Special considerations are required for the evaluation of gastrointestinal pathology in the pediatric population. The spectrum of pediatric gastrointestinal tract disorders is broad, and the diagnosis often requires a different approach from that in adults. In addition, certain conditions (e.g., congenital enteropathies, monogenic inflammatory bowel disease) are rarely encountered, even at large pediatric centers. Thus, these specimens pose unique diagnostic challenges for many practicing pathologists. The aim of this Special Issue is to highlight recent advances in the field of pediatric gastrointestinal pathology. This Special Issue will also provide a practical overview of relevant disorders for pathologists and clinicians who diagnose and manage pediatric patients. Various types of articles (e.g., case series, original research, reviews) on common and rare entities are welcome.
