Gastroenterology

Karger Gastroenterology covers a wide spectrum. Our international journal of gastroenterology focusing on clinical research reports is Digestion, whereas Digestive Diseases deals with the latest in diagnosis and treatment of gastrointestinal disorders.

Digestive Surgery presents a comprehensive overview of the field of gastrointestinal surgery and the related field of oncology. From 2020 on Karger will have four open access journals in the field of gastroenterology. Gastrointestinal Tumors is an international platform for key opinions and research. Liver Cancer on the other hand serves the growing need to better understand the causes, mechanisms, and therapy of malignancy.

The first gastroenterology journal dedicated exclusively to case reports is Case Reports in Gastroenterology, whereas Inflammatory Intestinal Diseases takes an integrative approach between east and west and deals mainly with celiac disease, Crohn’s disease, and irritable bowel syndrome.
