This updated and revised second edition of "Vascular Surgery: Cases, Questions and Commentaries" provides a thorough overview of the management principles of clinical cases in vascular surgery. It also summarizes all the relevant topics the vascular trainee is expected to be familiar with. With an international panel of contributors, this book familiarizes the reader quickly with day-to-day clinical practice. Case presentations are presented in question and answer format and have been widely referenced to reassure the reader that the contents are established best practice. Most cases are accompanied by several x-rays or color illustrations for visual clarity. With such interaction between reader and case report no other book of a similar format is currently available on the market.
