Practical Peripheral Vascular Intervention, Second Edition is a how-to guide to state-of-the-art vascular interventional procedures for all arteries and veins outside the coronary vascular system. Chapters on each artery cover indications for interventional procedures, vascular anatomy, access, diagnostic angiography, and specific interventional techniques used by experienced practitioners. This thoroughly updated edition includes an expanded section on intracranial stenting, additional material on venous filters, venous thrombosis, and central venous occlusion, and more chapters reviewing all cardiac noninvasive modalities. More than 300 large-size illustrations show trainees and clinicians the best approach to treatment.

This manual is a practical how-to guide to vascular interventional procedures for all arteries and veins outside the coronary vascular system. The book provides the information needed to evaluate patients and perform procedures and describes the actual techniques used by experienced practitioners, including anticoagulants, antithrombotics, wires, guides, angioplasty, and stents. More than 400 illustrations complement the text. Chapters on each artery cover indications for interventional procedures, vascular anatomy, access, diagnostic angiography, and specific interventional techniques. Complications and risks of restenosis are also discussed. The book also includes a chapter on training and credentialing in peripheral vascular intervention.

The Handbook of Endovascular Peripheral Interventions has been written to serve as a comprehensive guide for both the beginner and advanced interventionalist. Covering all aspects of percutaneous peripheral vascular interventions, each chapter of this highly illustrated book provides a brief background, etiology, clinical presentation, imaging, and percutaneous treatment of different vascular conditions. Importantly, Tips of the Trade and How I Do It sections within each chapter make the handbook practical for daily use. These invaluable pearls are provided by contributing chapter authors who are experts in the field. Edited by Dr. Christopher D. Owens (Division of Vascular Surgery) and Dr. Yerem Yeghiazarians (Division of Interventional Cardiology), from the University of California San Francisco School of Medicine, the Handbook of Endovascular Peripheral Interventions is a collaborative effort between cardiologists, vascular surgeons, and radiologists. Since each subspecialty brings unique expertise and experience to the field, this handbook will be a valuable resource for all physicians currently working in peripheral vascular interventions.

This comprehensive clinical reference describes the full range of endovascular interventions currently used for peripheral vascular problems. The first section provides essential information on peripheral vascular diseases, including etiology, clinical and laboratory evaluation, and imaging before performing a procedure. The second section explains the physics, techniques, and clinical uses of all vascular imaging modalities. The major portion of the book covers specific arterial and venous interventions for each anatomic region. These chapters address clinical issues, indications, patient selection, procedural and technical considerations, results, and post-procedural management, and discuss available devices and pharmaceuticals. More than 1,100 illustrations complement the text.

This compact, richly illustrated text presents a uniquely visual representation of the procedures interventionalists need to master to perform peripheral vascular interventions successfully. Written and illustrated by a skilled practitioner with many years of hands-on clinical experience, it shares his knowledge, advice, and techniques, giving readers the sense of sitting side-by-side with him at the angiography table. Special Features: More than 570 instructive, fully labeled schematic drawings showing the sequence of steps in common peripheral vascular interventions (excluding the vessels of the heart) Covers the physiologic, anatomic, and technical fundamentals of procedures undertaken in the abdomen and lower and upper extremities Includes detailed information on materials (e.g., stents, guidewires, cannulas, sheaths, and balloon and angiography catheters) and methods (e.g., retrograde and antegrade catheterization of the femoral artery, crossover catheterization, venous access, angiography, stent placement, local thrombolysis, and much more) Focuses on procedures chosen for their clinical relevance and frequency of occurrence in everyday practice Shares the author's wealth of clinical experience in time-saving tips, tricks, warning signs, risks, complications, and hazards to avoid Especially for the beginning interventional radiologist, but also for the more experienced practitioner who wants to optimize procedures, this book provides he didactic visual examples and descriptions to perform interventions confidently and successfully. It is an ideal reference and refresher for residents, fellows, and practitioners in radiology and interventional radiology, vascular surgery, and angiology.
