Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
An evidence-based approach underpins and prompts change in modern surgical therapy. Driven by an improved understading of the pathological basis of disease and its treatment alongside an imperative to improve outcomes, these changes affect all disciplines of visceral surgery. To complicate matters further, advancements in diagnostic and surgical technology have heralded changes in theraputic indications, with the advent of modern medications greatly influecing how and when surgeons intervene. In this Special Issue, we welcome authors to submit papers on the emerging clinical trends in visceral surgery including foregut, hepatobiliary, colorectal, and trauma surgery. We look forward to receving your contributions.
