Second Opinion on Gastroenterology
The main range of situations when this type of medical advice is advisable and technically feasible covers such conditions of the digestive system as inflammatory diseases, benign and malignant neoplasms of the esophagus, stomach, intestines, liver, gallbladder and biliary tract, spleen, and pancreas.
Precise malignancy staging and risk assessment can be provided, given the availability of comprehensive test results, such as CT, MRI, PET imaging, ultrasound scan findings, histological analysis; on-going therapy effect evaluation and current medication lists.
A gastroenterologist, involved in giving a second opinion, makes a conclusion about his agreement with the previous diagnosis, or questions its correctness on the basis of incomplete examination or different interpretation of its results. In the latter case are to be given the proposals for further diagnostic measures. An important aspect of the remote second opinion procedure is the assessment of therapeutic options and suggestions for the further treatment and observation tactics.
The consulting doctor gives an opinion on the conservative, invasive or surgical treatment advisability. He can also, by the presence of a complete diagnostic picture, recommend a scheme of drug treatment. It could be also given recommendations about lifestyle, habits and nutrition.
Remote second opinion is hardly advisable with acute conditions requiring urgent treatment (such as intestinal obstruction, coma), or with cancer cases when available therapy options have been exhausted.

Colorectal cancer is a very severe diagnosis. Nevertheless, modern diagnosis and therapy options make it possible to successfully fight the disease. Even if a complete cure, at certain stages, is no longer possible, there are good chances to prolong life and maintain its quality.

Blood in the stool can indicate various intestinal conditions, including erosions, tumors, polyps and so on. But in combination with diarrhoea and cramping pains they are more often a sign of non-specific ulcerative colitis. The exact cause of the disease is not known, as well as there is no single method of treatment. Therefore, it is recommended to take into account the opinions of several doctors when undergoing an examination and choosing treatment.

Constant bowel movement problems in the form of diarrhea can indicate Crohn's disease. Inflammation may occur in any part of the digestive system, from the mouth to the rectum. The disease is chronic and requires regular drug treatment and a diet.
