Barrett’s esophagus with dysplasia has traditionally been managed surgically and esophagectomy performed in centers of excellence may not be high-risk as previously thought, especially in otherwise fit individuals.

Digestive medicine has changed progressively and dramatically over the last few decades.

Cholangiocar-cinomas are typically associated with an extremely poor prognosis, and curative surgical resection is possible for few patients. Thus, palliation of jaundice is the main goal. Endoscopic therapy is the primary modality for achieving nonoperative palliation. The addition of photodynamic therapy to endoscopic stent placement may improve palliation and prolong survival.
