A Comprehensive Guide to Practice

We are delighted to present the second edition of the Textbook of Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition to you all. We were overwhelmed by the interest shown by the readers in the first edition, reflected in many thousand downloads of the chapters. In the meantime, during the past 5 years or so, a huge amount of research has been published in the field of gastroenterology, hepatology, and nutrition, resulting in a new understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms of childhood gastrointestinal and liver disorders that has helped to develop newer diagnostics, therapies, and guidelines.
