---

Colorectal disease is of importance to both general surgeons and physicians. Despite this overlap between specialties, previous books on this area have tended to be written for one discipline and not for the other. Colorectal diseases for physicians and surgeons is the first book to be aimed at both groups. It presents an authoritative, up-to-date overview of colorectal diseases, and current management techniques. The book is fully illustrated, and includes an extensive bibliography at the end of each chapter, with the most important references highlighted. While being an essential text for both surgeons and physicians, the book will also be a valuable reference work for postgraduate students studying colorectal diseases as a specialized topic in the third part FRCS examinations. This book is intended for consultant surgeons and physicians; postgraduate medical and surgical trainees, pathologists, and radiologists.
