Complex Arterial and Venous Problems

Complex Arterial and Venous Problems features chapters on the management of complex problems affecting the visceral arteries such as dissections, aneurysms, and occlusive disease. Arranged in six sections and 25 chapters, topics include disorders of the mesenteric vessels, aneurysms, and complex aortic problems. A section explores vascular interventions during primary, nonvascular procedures.

To complete this work, we have included chapters on complex aortic, extremity, and venous issues not covered in the other books included in this series.

The annual symposium on vascular surgery, sponsored by the Division of Vascular Surgery at the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, addresses contemporary topics and controversies in vascular and endovascular surgery. The symposium brings together leading surgeons to address timely topics and controversies in vascular and endovascular surgery. Presentations at the symposium cover the full spectrum of vascular surgery, including changes in management of extracranial cerebrovascular disease, new treatment options for lower extremity arterial occlusive disease, hemodialysis access, improvements in techniques for complex venous disease, and developments in aortic stent graft repair in the chest and abdomen. The Modern Trends in Vascular Surgery series is a topical compilation of the standout presentations from the most recent three symposia.
