Interdisciplinary Rheumatology: Rheumatology and Gastroenterology is the first complete textbook to
examine the myriad complications of rheumatic syndromes in the gastrointestinal tract. Each disease is
summarized for a broad medical audience, with focus on the consequences of the disorder throughout
the gut. The reader will formulate an understanding of the clinical, pharmacological, and nutritional
aspects of the interface of these two specialties with expert contributors from a range of academic centers.
Rheumatologists and gastroenterologists will be able to recognize, evaluate, and treat gastrointestinal
symptoms of autoimmune diseases and collaborate in improving the experience and outcomes of these
complex patients.
