• Sommario/riassunto: This new title provides a systematic review of complex cases in ; peripheral vascular interventions (PVI), a minimal endovascular approach to treating peripheral arteries. This increasingly evolving area in interventional therapies offers reduced risk for complications compared to conventional surgery and takes advantage of advanced techniques to treat more complex lesions in severely diseased patients. The text is divided into two sections, the first reviews general aspects on managing complex patients in PVI, and the second discusses complex cases in specific vessel areas, examining the interventions from puncture to closure, heat-to-toe. Complex cases in Peripheral Vascular Interventions offers readers the opportunity to tap into the knowledge of those working on complex cases in the cutting edge field and receive both theoretical and practical tips on how to approach specific vascular lesions--Provided by publisher.
