Current Vascular Surgery 2012

This volume contains reports from the 37th Annual Vascular Symposium, which for nearly four decades has been sponsored by the Division of Vascular Surgery at the Feinberg School of Medicine, Northwestern University. The chapters were contributed by 50 experts of national and international standing and were based on their symposium presentations. The full spectrum of vascular surgery is covered: changes in management of extracranial cerebrovascular disease, new treatments for lower extremity arterial occlusive disease, novel techniques for complex venous disease, and cutting-edge developments in aortic stent graft repair in the chest and abdomen. The chapter in this volume, which benefited from the spirited discussions after the corresponding presentations at the symposium, provide in-dept detail and "pearls" from the experts.
The text is divided into the following ten sections:
Cerebrovascular disease
Supra-aortic trunk disease
Lower extremity arterial disease
Lower extremity venous disease
Abdominal aortic disease
Visceral and renal artery disease
Thoracic aortic disease
Thoracoabdominal disease
Complex venous problems
Upper extremity disease
