This one-of-a-kind guide gets endovascular and trauma specialists up to date on the rapidly evolving field of vascular injury management
New technologies have created fresh opportunities to explore improved care options for patients with vascular injuries, and the discipline of vascular surgery is increasingly moving toward wider use of endovascular treatments. This makes collaboration between trauma and vascular specialists more important than ever when diagnosing and managing care of patients with vascular injuries.
Edited by highly experienced, dual-trained trauma and vascular/endovascular surgeons, Vascular Injury: Endovascular and Open Management walks readers through the process of medical, open, or endovascular management of contemporary vascular injury. Detailed description of endovascular technical elements help endovascular specialists adapt their traditional vascular surgery approaches to trauma; at the same time, the book familiarizes trauma specialists with an expanded technical skillset, as well as the strengths/limitations of technologies not provided elsewhere in traditional trauma training. Chapters include:
*A brief history of vascular injury - training, diagnosis and management
*Contemporary diagnosis of vascular injury
*General open vascular repair for trauma
*Basics of endovascular trauma management
*Endovascular tools and techniques for trauma applications
*Vascular damage control
*Cervical vascular injury
*Upper extremity injury
*Axillo-subclavian injuries
*Thoracic arch and proximal great vessels
*Abdominal aortic and Iliac artery injury
*General principles of post-operative management and surveillance
*Compartment syndrome in the setting of vascular injury
*Solid organ embolization for management of traumatic injury
*Hybrid trauma care environments and vascular trauma teams
Chapters include demographics of injury/epidemiology; anatomy; diagnosis; roles of medical management and open intervention; techniques of open exposure and management; role of endovascular intervention; techniques of endovascular exposure and management; roles for anticoagulation and antiplatelets; post-operative care and surveillance.
