This book is designed to provide easy to reference, up to date protocols and procedures for vascular ultrasound. The text also delineates how to interpret imaging findings and implement results for optimal patient care outcomes. Chapters thoroughly cover an array of topics focused on the interpretation of vascular ultrasound, including transcranial Doppler, hemodialysis fistula mapping, and pelvic venous duplex, as well as the protocols and standards of the Massachusetts General Hospital Vascular Lab. Expert authors provide step by step detail on how to perform vascular lab examinations correctly, how to clinically interpret results, and how to implement findings into clinical practice. There is additionally coverage of how to develop and receive accreditation for a new vascular laboratory. This is an ideal guide for vascular surgeons, general surgeons, primary care physicians, vascular technologists, interventional radiologists, cardiologists, vascular medicinespecialists, anesthesiologist and any practitioners who practice vascular ultrasound.

The field of robotic surgery is dynamic and fascinating. Surgical robots currently perform a wide range of procedures across a diverse group of specialties, and they have proven to exhibit a number of significant advantages over manual surgeries, including increased precision, less blood loss and pain, and shorter recovery times. In a rapidly changing world of technology, healthcare organizations may find it difficult to determine how to incorporate robotically-assisted surgical techniques into their systems..Essentials of Robotic Surgery provides comprehensive, detailed analysis of the current developments in robotically assisted surgery. Covered in the book are the most notable, current surgical applications, from coronary revascularization to prostate surgery, from the lungs and esophagus to the uterus, from sleep apnea to head and neck cancer..Edited by Drs. Manak Sood and Stefan W. Leichtle, this book details the history of robotic surgical technologies and techniques, while looking ahead to the possibilities contained within future applications. Essentials of Robotic Surgery is an ideal resource for healthcare professionals who are considering whether robotic surgeries may be right for their organization.

Abdominal Wall Hernias is the most up-to-date, comprehensive reference available on all aspects of hernia repair. It includes state-of-the-art approaches to conventional open repairs using tissue-to-tissue techniques, the use of prosthetic mesh, minimally invasive approaches, the repair of recurrent and massive hernias, pertinent anatomy, basic science, and emerging biomaterials. The authors present a full spectrum of procedures to enable readers to gain a broad knowledge of the multifaceted repair of hernias. Richly illustrated, this book is a vital resource for all general surgeons and surgeons-in-training.

This practical book covers the basic principles and practice of dialysis access management, a crucial part of the care of patients undergoing hemodialysis. It has been written in an easy-to-read, step-by-step format to help facilitate learning and understanding of the procedures and has been supplemented with numerous operative photographs and diagrams demonstrating the commonly performed dialysis access exams, interventions, procedures and surgeries.Dialysis access management is an essential text for residents, fellows and physicians who are learning or practicing in dialysis and/or dialysis access management, especially in the fields of nephrology, radiology, surgery and vascular medicine.

Among the many intense light sources, excimer lasers have a unique set of properties that place them at the forefront of tooling for material processing. Their extreme versatility means that they can be used in many areas of materials science and medicine. But three conditions need to be fulfilled in order that their versatility be truly appreciated and exploited: the characteristics and limitations of the sources must be known; the basic excimer laser processes should become reasonably widely known; and problems in search of a solution should be clearly identified. Excimer Lasers covers all three of these points in an instructive and logical way. Probably for the first time, both instrumental and fundamental aspects of excimer laser interaction with matter are presented side-by-side, with examples drawn from the widest range of materials. The articles gathered here are tutorial in their nature, thus making them suitable for a wide readership, from recent graduates and postgraduate students to those established scientists entering the field, all of whom could not find a better, nor more authoritative work with which to start their reading.

Periphere Durchblutungsstörungen sind eine Volkskrankheit moderner Industrienationen. Sie sind mit einer hohen Morbidität und Mortalität verbunden. Insbesondere diabetische Angiopathien führen nicht selten zu invalidisierenden Gliedmaßenamputationen. Präventive und therapeutische Zielsetzungen gehören deshalb zu den vordringlichsten Aufgaben der heutigen Gefäßmedizin.Bei der Behandlung der pAVK haben angiologische Therapien die gleiche Bedeutung wie die Fibrinolyse, die endovaskuläre Kathetertherapie oder die offene Gefäßrekonstruktion. Für die Auswahl und die Kombination der Verfahren ist eine optimale Gefäßdiagnostik entscheidend. Der Therapieerfolg aber hängt ausschließlich von der Versorgung der Extremität mit Sauerstoff und Nährstoffen, also der Wiederdurchblutung ab. Deshalb haben auch Qualitätskontrollen der Behandlungsverfahren eine wachsende Bedeutung.Dieses Buch zeigt die Möglichkeiten und Grenzen der modernen Gefäßmedizin auf und bietet hilfreiche Ansätze zur Behandlung gefäßkranker Patienten.

The fifth edition of Vascular Surgery has been thoroughly revised, enlarged and updated. Written by an international panel of experts, this atlas presents indications for each procedure, detailed technical analysis for the operation, and a summary of its post-operative complications. The authors have made great efforts to highlight potential pitfalls and danger areas in each operation and give advice on avoidance of complications.

One of the most outstanding achievements in contemporary surgery has been the development ofmicrosurgery and its c1inical application. Early in 1960s, the Shanghai Sixth People's Hospital began to research and practise the replant­ ation of severed limbs and has hence been acc1aimed as the cradle of replant­ ation surgery in China. Succeeding Dr. Chen Zhong-wei, Dr. Yu Zhong-jia has led the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery to continue ploughing and weeding diligently in the field of microsurgery of the extremities and has made, in both reconstructive and reparative microsurgery, great advances that have attracted world attention. I used to be the scientific advisor of this hospital and have therefore followed c1ose1y what has been achieved there. A well-known orthopaedist and microsurgeon, Dr. Yu Zhong-jia is adept in using the present advanced techniques to solve difficult problems which re­ mained unsettled in spite of predecessors' repeated earlier attempts, and his own scientific research is always directed by the imperative needs of his patients. The results of his research thus not only attain a high technical standard, but are also rich in practical value. Dr. Yu was the the first surgeon in the world to trans plan ted autogenous toes to the amputated forearm stump, with a metallic artificial metacarpus as the connection, reconstructing a new hand with sensibil­ ity and movability afterwards eulogized by foreign friends as the "China Hand".

Peripheral and Cerebrovascular Intervention draws upon experts from diverse fields to provide readers with a comprehensive foundation for understanding and performing endovascular procedures-from the basic steps to the most current and advanced techniques. Individual chapters focus on primary intervention sites, including lower extremity, renal/mesenteric, subclavian/upper extremity, carotid/vertebral, intracranial and venous interventions. Additionally, chapters covering critical limb ischemia and abdominal and thoracic aortic aneurysms are included. By incorporating valuable clinical information, such as indications, contraindications, complications and discussions of surgical techniques and procedures, this book is a valuable resource for the busy practitioner and will be of interest to all interventional and general cardiologists, radiologists and neurologists; vascular surgeons; internists and residents and fellows.

The operative procedure can be precise and perfect only if it is based upon the surgeon's profound knowledge of normal anatomy, his understanding of the alterations in this normal anatomy by the pathol ogy with which he is dealing, and his ability to use this anatomic informa tion in organizing and effecting his surgical procedure.
