Case Reports and Reviews: Open Access

Gastroenterology & Hepatology Case Reports & Reviews is a dedicated specialty collection within Case Reports and Reviews: Open Access that publishes peer-reviewed case reports, case series, clinical images, review articles, and original research covering gastroenterology, hepatology, and related digestive diseases. The collection provides an international platform for sharing clinically significant cases, diagnostic challenges, innovative therapeutic approaches, and evidence-based management strategies that advance clinical practice in digestive health.

Gastroenterology and hepatology encompass the diagnosis, treatment, and long-term management of disorders affecting the gastrointestinal tract, liver, pancreas, biliary system, and digestive organs. Articles published in this collection highlight uncommon gastrointestinal diseases, complex hepatobiliary disorders, pancreatic diseases, inflammatory bowel disease, gastrointestinal bleeding, gastrointestinal oncology, advanced endoscopic procedures, and challenging clinical presentations encountered in everyday practice.

Case reports remain an important educational resource in gastroenterology and hepatology by documenting rare disease presentations, unusual endoscopic findings, novel therapeutic interventions, unexpected treatment outcomes, and complex diagnostic pathways. These reports provide valuable clinical insights through the integration of endoscopic evaluation, radiological imaging, histopathology, laboratory investigations, and multidisciplinary clinical decision-making, supporting evidence-based patient care and continuing medical education.

The collection also showcases advances in diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopy, hepatobiliary interventions, pancreaticobiliary diseases, inflammatory bowel disease, gastrointestinal oncology, chronic liver disease, and minimally invasive procedures. Many published articles reflect collaboration among gastroenterologists, hepatologists, gastrointestinal surgeons, radiologists, pathologists, oncologists, and other healthcare professionals, highlighting the multidisciplinary approach required for optimal management of digestive diseases.

Articles are organised within this collection to improve discoverability and help gastroenterologists, hepatologists, researchers, trainees, and healthcare professionals quickly locate clinically relevant cases and educational resources across the field of digestive medicine. 

We welcome submissions from authors worldwide that present meaningful clinical observations, innovative management strategies, and evidence that contributes to improved diagnosis, patient care, and advances in gastroenterology and hepatology.
