Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, advanced endoscopy has emerged as an effective and minimally invasive treatment for complications following major gastrointestinal surgery. The integration of endoscopic vacuum therapy, stents and OTSC into clinical practice has shown promising results in managing anastomotic leaks in both the lower and upper digestive tracts. Presently, there is a need for additional data to validate the existing evidence and develop precise treatment algorithms. This Special Issue is calling for paper submissions focusing on the endoscopic treatment of gastrointestinal post-surgical complications, including leaks and bleeding. The objective is to present further evidence and reinforce the notion of endoscopy as a frontline approach in treating such complications, thereby enhancing patient outcomes.
You may choose our Joint Special Issue in Gastroenterology Insights.
