Publisher Description: Featuring contributions from over thirty specialists, Clinical Problems in Vascular Surgery describes the problems that most challenge surgeons, and aids them to prepare an appropriate strategy in each case. This book provides a thorough grounding in the principles and practice of vascular surgery. It begins with a discussion of the basis of vascular audit before reviewing the principal disease entities and related operative procedures, together with the possible complications associated with each. Routine problems such as chronic occlusive disease, varicose veins and amputations are discussed, as well as aneurisms, trauma, femorodistal grafts, and management of the swollen or ischaemic limb. Other chapters describe the investigation and management of conditions associated with more generalised or systemic disease such as diabetes mellitus, renovascular hypertension and Raynaud's phenomenon. Operative complications such as sepsis are also covered, as are problems related to the use of blood and blood products. |
