Complex Cases in Peripheral Vascular Interventions

This volume provides a systematic review of complex cases in peripheral vascular interventions (PVI)—a minimal invasive endovascular approach to treating peripheral arteries. This increasingly evolving area offers reduced risk for complications compared to conventional surgery and uses advanced techniques to treat more complex lesions in severely diseased patients. The book describes typical and atypical cases for all peripheral vessel areas and outlines methods to successfully and safely handle these interventions. It reviews general aspects of managing patients and discusses cases in specific vessel areas, examining the interventions from puncture to closure, head to toe.
