Evidence-Based Endoscopy
Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart ·New York
A Little Girl with Pancreatitis
In this series we ask one or more experts to review a case. They are provided with information on which further management is to be based, and asked to explain their rationale, using the available evidence in the literature. What was actually done in the case is then revealed, and the experts are asked for a further comment.Further Information

Moderator's Introduction
For our first case in this Evidence-Based Endoscopy series, I am delighted to welcome an old friend and mentor, Dr. Richard (Dick) Kozarek. As you will see, I took pity and give him an “easy” case!
