Vascular Injury: Endovascular and Open Surgical Management - Joe Dubose - Bog

This one-of-a-kind guide gets endovascular and trauma specialists up to date on the rapidly evolving field of vascular injury managementNew technologies have created fresh opportunities to explore improved care options for patients with vascular injuries, and the discipline of vascular surgery is increasingly moving toward wider use of endovascular treatments. This makes collaboration between trauma and vascular specialists more important than ever when diagnosing and managing care of patients with vascular injuries.Edited by highly experienced, dual-trained trauma and vascular/endovascular surgeons, Vascular Injury: Endovascular and Open Management walks readers through the process of medical, open, or endovascular management of contemporary vascular injury.
