This updated volume acknowledges new data and techniques in the area of vascular surgery. New chapters have been added and previous chapters have been updated to cover recent developments in vascular and endovascular surgery.

The book aims to bring together a unique collection of real life cases that highlight the diversity of problems encountered in vascular surgery.

This book is written along evidence based medicine principles and will be relevant to vascular practitioners, as well as medical trainees.

• endovascular
• surgery
• vascular
• endovascular techniques
• Visceral aneurysm
• Stent graft

“This is a useful book for current vascular surgery trainees to use to learn while being able to perform active self-assessment. It is interactive study material as opposed to the typical didactic surgical textbook. This edition is appropriately updated with modernized methods and references to endovascular surgical techniques.” (Courtney Furlough, Doody's Book Reviews, August, 2018)
