Opis

Endovascular Interventions uses a case-based approach to present the current methodology used for the treatment of peripheral arterial and venous diseases. Utilizing a series of case studies, the book presents readers with a range of complexities and complications encountered in daily practice, along with tips and tricks for overcoming them. Chapters are organized to give a comprehensive look at conditions involved in endovascular interventions, including intracranial strokes, lower extremity artery disease, access-related pseudoaneurysm, complications of intra-aortic balloon pumps, aortic dissections, and septic arteritis. Endovascular Interventions: A Case-Based Approach is a practical guide and valuable resource for the practicing interventional cardiologist, interventional radiologist, vascular surgeon and cardiothoracic surgeon.

Recenzje

From the reviews:

"This is a comprehensive, case-based book on endovascular procedures that outlines steps of procedures and highlights key aspects of these procedures with images from real cases. ... The book meets its admirable goals, presenting a broad spectrum of experience and wisdom in the treatment of disease amenable to endovascular therapy. It is intended for practicing clinicians who perform endovascular procedures, such as vascular surgeons, general surgeons, and interventional radiologists ... . This is a useful and unique contribution to a new and growing field." (Neel Mansukhani, Doody's Book Reviews, December, 2013)

Due to significant advances in minimally invasive techniques, the endovascular approach is being increasingly used in the treatment of vascular diseases.  Endovascular interventions avoid  the trauma of conventional surgery, particularly for patients who are at high risk due to age or comorbidity.  Endovascular Interventions: A Case-Based Approach presents the current methodology underlying the endovascular treatment of peripheral arterial and venous disorders.  Using a case-based approach, it presents readers with a range of complexities and complications encountered in daily practice, together with tips and tricks for overcoming them.  The editors, Robert Dieter, Raymond Dieter, Jr., Raymond Dieter, III, and Aravinda Nanjundappa, are recognized for their work in interventional cardiology and cardiothoracic and vascular surgery and bring a unique perspective to the use of these approaches.  The chapters are written by leading international authorities in endovascular treatment of arterial, venous, and lymphatic vessels and discuss the conditions for which these interventions are appropriate, including intracranial strokes, restenotic lesions, subclavian artery stenosis, upper and lower extremity artery disease, ascending aortic pseudoaneurysm, abdominal aortic aneurysm, complications of intra-aortic balloon pumps, vasculitis, and iatrogenic aortic dissection.  This book is a practical guide and valuable resource for practicing vascular specialists, interventional cardiologists, interventional radiologists, vascular surgeons, and cardiothoracic surgeons.
