by Ronald F. Martin MD, Roberto Bergamaschi MD PhD, Nilesh Patel MD

This issue will examine clinical outcomes for routinely performed advanced laparoscopy procedures. Procedures will be evaluated not only for their mere feasibility, but also in regards to separate health-related and patient-centered outcomes. Laparoscopic techniques for various conditions will be addressed, including adrenalectomy, paraesophageal hernia repair, gastric bypass, diverticulitis, Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, and colon cancer.
