Upper gastrointestinal surgery (GI) is a practice of surgery which is concerned with the upper parts of the gastrointestinal tract. The tasks performed by an upper GI surgeon include esophagectomy, liver resection and pancreaticoduodenectomy. Lower gastrointestinal surgery, also known as lower GI surgery is a practice of surgery concerned with colorectal surgery as well as surgery of the small intestine. A lower GI surgeon usually deals with colectomy and low or ultralow resections for rectal cancer. This book contains some path-breaking studies related to gastrointestinal surgery. It discusses the fundamental as well as modern approaches of gastrointestinal surgery. This book includes contributions of experts and doctors which will provide innovative insights to readers
