Synopsis

There has been a dramatic increase over the last five years in the number of people undergoing vascular surgery, ranging from major surgery on the large arteries to the treatment of varicose veins. This growth has been reflected in a glut of texts on vascular surgery, both from North America and Europe. However, these deal mainly with the elective surgery and neglect emergencies whether they be caused by trauma or, more commonly, by post-operative complications. When emergencies arise they often have to be dealt with by general rather than vascular, surgeons. This volume provides the first detailed exposition of the primary and secondary care of emergency surgery to the arteries and veins. It covers the main vascular emergencies which confront vascular and general surgeons. Divided into four sections - general, arterial, venous and trauma - the book is written by an international group of distinguished vascular surgeons. A structured approach is employed throughout defining the problem and pathophysiology proceeding to diagnosis, immediate care, selection of patients for definitive treatment, treatment techniques and results, against a review of the literature. The experts' experience and opinions, judged against a 'yardstick' derived from the best in the literature, is supported by sound practical approaches which are of help to the vascular surgeon, general surgeon, specialists in emergency medicine, trauma and critical care.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

There has been a dramatic increase over the last five years in the number of people undergoing vascular surgery, ranging from major surgery on the large arteries to the treatment of varicose veins.

This growth has been reflected in a glut of texts on vascular surgery, both from North America and Europe. However, these deal mainly with elective surgery and neglect emergencies whether they be caused by trauma or, more commonly, by post-operative complications. When emergencies arise they often have to be dealt with by general, rather than vascular, surgeons.

This volume provides the first detailed exposition of the primary and secondary care of emergency surgery to the arteries and veins. As such, it will be of interest to both the specialist and the general surgeon.
