"As the field of the vascular surgery continues to evolve with new technologies, this book is much needed as an up-to-date guide. The chapters have informative titles and are less than 10 pages long, which makes searching for and reading particular topics a breeze. The editors have collected the wisdom from world-renowned vascular surgery experts for this book. It can serve as a reference for case planning and/or as review for board certification exams."-Mila H Ju, M.D.(Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine) Doody Review: 5 stars
