The significant change from the first text is an emphasis on
vascular pathology and physiology that is relevant to current
practice including information that is currently included on the
vascular board examinations. A new emphasis on endovascular
therapies has been added by including five chapters on endovascular
techniques and an additional section with six chapters comparing
conventional vascular reconstruction to endovascular methods. These
new chapters address the most important issue in contemporary
vascular surgery, i.e., the role of endovascular methods in
treating vascular lesions and the impact that this has on training
and credentialing. A unique aspect of this book differentiating it
from other texts is a comparison of conventional methods with the
endovascular techniques.
Overall the text provides a comprehensive perspective of contemporary vascular surgery and future perspectives. The authors are preeminent in the field and are most capable for addressing the assigned topics with the goals being to provide an updated and forward looking text that accommodates the needs of practicing and training vascular surgeons.
