Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of hepatology is full of controversies and clinical dilemmas. Each day, gastroenterologists and hepatologists are faced with the challenge of making the best evidence-based decision in challenging cases that do not readily lend themselves to an easy answer, even with today's available medical literature. Controversies in Hepatology: The Experts Analyze Both Sides is based on the principle of an academic debate. Dr. Donald Jensen is joined by 50 colleagues who present evidence-based arguments for and against 17 key controversial areas in hepatology. Each point-counterpoint is then followed up by a summarization of key points by a leading expert in that topic area. Some Chapter Topics Include: * Should living donor liver transplantation be considered in adult acute liver failure? * Should hepatitis C be treated in patients with chronic kidney disease prior to kidney transplant? * Resect or observe asymptomatic hepatic adenoma? * Strictly adhere to the "6-month rule" for recent history of alcohol abuse in potential liver transplant candidates? * Autoimmune hepatitis: maintenance therapy for all patients or stop treatment after histologic remission? With concise clinical information to reinforce the point-counterpoint text, Controversies in Hepatology: The Experts Analyze Both Sides will become the go-to resource for teaching and perfecting the important skills required to weigh the evidence and arrive at an outcome.
