improving rest pain?
Ch.17: In patients with limb-threatening vascular injuries, is there a role of prophylactic fasciotomy to reduce
ischemic injury?
Ch.18: In patients with Popliteal Entrapment Syndrome, does surgery improve quality of life?
Section 3: Mesenteric Disease
Ch.19: In patients with Acute Mesenteric Ischemia does an endovascular or hybrid approach improve morbidity and
mortality compared to open revascularization?
Ch.20: Chronic Mesenteric Arterial Disease Does an endovascular/hybrid approach improve morbidity and mortality as
compared to open revascularization?
Ch.21: In patients with mesenteric ischemia is single vessel reconstruction equivalent to multiple vessel
revascularization?
Ch.22: In patients with celiac artery compression syndrome, does surgery improve quality of life?
Ch.23: In patients with the Superior Mesenteric Artery syndrome is Enteric Bypass superior to Duodenal Mobilization
Ch.24: In patients with Renovascular hypertension is there a role for open or endovascular revascularization compared
to medical management?
Ch.25: Does endovascular repair reduce the risk of rupture compared to open repair in splanchnic artery aneurysms?
Section 4: Cerebrovascular Disease
Ch.26: In patients with asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis does current best medical management reduce the risk of
stroke compared to intervention (endarterectomy or stent)?
Ch.27: In patients with symptomatic carotid artery stenosis is endarterectomy safer than carotid stenting?
Ch.28: In Patients Undergoing Carotid Endarterectomy, is the Eversion Technique Superior to a Patch Technique to Reduce
Restenosis?
Ch.29: In patients with a stroke attributable to a carotid artery stenosis, does waiting to operate reduce the risk of
complications?

Traditional Anticoagulation?
Ch.35: In morbidly obese patients undergoing major abdominal operative procedures, does inferior vena cava filter
placement prevent massive PE?
Ch.36: In patients with chronic venous stenosis, does placement of a stent improve patency compared to recurrent
angioplasty?
Ch.37: In Patients with Chronic Venous Ulcer is the Unna Boot Still the Best Approach to Wound Care
Ch.38: In Patients with Threatened or Occluded Access Grafts, Is it Better to Salvage the Graft, or Create a New Site?
