Italian term

apparato gastroenterico

Italian to English Medical gastroenterology
My dictionary (Zanichelli) gives this as "gastroenteric apparatus", but searching the web gives a remarkably low number of hits for what should be such a common phrase, and almost all the important hits are Italian web sites.

Eurodicautom gives it as "bowel/s"

Can someone give me a good ENUK current usage for this?

agree Rachel Fell : gastrointestinal system - also, I'd say the bowels are the lower intestinal area and don't include the gastric bit
