Abstract

Biliary tract disorders encompass a wide range of benign and malignant disease processes. In this special issue, we aimed to highlight advances in novel biomarkers, pharmacotherapies, endoscopic techniques, and surgical management of a variety of biliary tract disorders. Such advances continue to lead to improved diagnostic accuracy, better therapies, and subsequently superior patient outcomes. Manuscripts selected for publication in this issue come from around the world and address clinically relevant topics and advances in biliary tract disorders, as briefly summarized below.
