Organized into 14 sections and 51 chapters, the book begins by discussing current issues regardin volume and training
for open surgery in endovascular surgery. Subsequent sections focus on endovascular intervention. Contemporary clinical
data regarding endovascular aortic repair is reviewed. Other topics covered include endovascualr and open management of
aortic branch pathology.


The Modern trends in Vascular Surgery series brings together the best, current strategies for therapeutic and clinical
practices.



These books contain the latest discoveries, techniques, practice and out comes in vascular surgery. There are
approximately 25 to 45 chapters in each book, classified under the following headings: cerebrovascular, ischemia ,
infrainguinal lesions, aortic aneurysm, thoracic aortic pathology, aorta and its major branches, upper extremity
ischemia, venous disorders, hemodialysis access, endovascular technology, noninvasive test, and issues in vascular
surgery. Each of the chapters contains valuable illustrations, tables, and a list of references to guide the reader
through the chapter. All chapters are reviewed and edited by the editors (James S. T. Yao, William Pearce, Jon
Matsumura, Mark Morasch, and Mark Eskandari).
This series of books ( 5 in all) is focused on specific topics in vascular surgery. For each title the editors will
assume the responsibility of adding the latest information and new chapters and to update all of the content, thus
making these books more cohesive and with newer, up-to-date information. The resulting product is a comprehensive
review of current knowledge across all of vascular surgery, covering: Carotid Artery Diseases, Surgery of the Aorta,
Venous Disorders, Endovascular technology and Ischemic Extremities.
