Practical Carotid Artery Stenting
In the management of vascular disease, there has been an inexorable drive towards less invasive endovascular treatment options. Endovascular treatment of carotid stenosis for stroke is no exception. Several sizeable multicentre trials are running concurrently, which are comparing carotid endarterectomy (CEA), the "gold standard," with the less invasive alternative, carotid stenting (CAS) for low-risk patients with symptomatic carotid stenoses who are considered to be surgical candidates. The endovascular option is in itself a newcomer but state-of-the-art CAS with regards use of all the available technical refinements, to include low-profile monorail dedicated systems with contemporary pharmacological support, is perhaps all but five years old. There is considerable interest from clinicians from a variety of clinical backgrounds and from industry in this technique and, therefore, scope for a contemporary practical guide.
Rare Vascular Disorders
In this era of evidence-based medicine, clinicians treat common conditions according to guidelines and protocols derived from the results of randomised clinical trials. This book will help vascular specialists when they have to treat a patient with an unusual condition where they may have no experience and there is little published scientific information. The Joint Vascular Research Group has collected rare vascular conditions in a register for over a decade, and this book reviews the experience, together with the best information from the surgical literature. The authors give a practical guide on the diagnosis and management of rare vascular disorders. This book should be read by everyone who manages patients with vascular disease.
Complications in Vascular and Endovascular Surgery
The aim of this book is to help clinicians to reduce the risk of complications after vascular and endovascular surgery. Whilst it is a surgical truism that the surgeon who does the most operations has the most complications (an acknowledgement of the fact that all vascular and endovascular procedures are potentially hazardous, and some extremely so), some surgeons seem to have more complications than others. This book is for all surgeons and radiologists who accept the challenge continually to improve their results. Each chapter is authored by an experienced (endo)vascular specialist who will have witnessed firsthand the perils and pitfalls of vascular procedures. They have seen all the comp...
Vascular and Endovascular Surgery E-Book
Vascular and Endovascular Surgery meets the needs of surgeons in higher training and practising consultants for a contemporary and evidence-based account of this sub-specialty that is relevant to their general surgical practice. It is a practical reference source incorporating the most current information on recent developments, management issues and operative procedures. The text is thoroughly referenced and supported by evidence-based recommendations wherever possible, distinguishing between strong evidence to support a conclusion, and evidence suggesting that a recommendation can be reached on the balance of probabilities. This is a title in the Companion to Specialist Surgical Practice s...

The Carotid and Supra-Aortic Trunks
Carotid Angioplasty and Stenting (CAS) is a new approach to treat a carotid stenosis. This new book provides interventional cardiologists, both as beginners or fully experienced, with a reference on all aspects of angioplasty and stenting of the carotid and supra-aortic trunks. Focusing on both the entire range of angioplasty and stenting treatment options for the surgeon treating patients on the operating table, and the range of radiological techniques used for the cardiologist to diagnose carotid artery stenosis (CAS) and associated conditions, this important book describes the best indications, the different techniques, the results, and also the limitations of CAS based on randomized studies and particularly the last published data (CREST study). Suitable for both novice and experienced interventionalists, it also addresses diagnosis of a carotid stenosis and complications from CAS and how to manage them.
Carotid Artery Stenting
Written by internationally recognized experts in interventional cardiology, this comprehensive clinical reference on carotid artery stenting provides illustrated, step-by-step descriptions of techniques and details on indications, contraindications, patient selection, complications, technology, and clinical trials. The first section reviews clinical results and experience, including the CAVATAS trial findings on stroke prevention. The second section describes stenting techniques and includes information from major trials on design and application of devices. The third section presents guidelines and current regulations on establishing a carotid stenting program. The book concludes with a preview of future directions.
Interventional Radiology
Interventional Radiology is a comprehensive guide suitable for all levels of knowledge, from medical students, nurses and radiographers to young and aspiring interventional trainees and junior consultants wishing to improve their understanding of the techniques or pursue a career in interventional radiology. The text covers knowledge of key equipmetn and drugs used in routine interventional practice and explains the fundamental skills which form the bedrock of virtually all interventional techniques. The handbook gives practical and detailed accounts of how to carry out interventional procedures from the most simple, such as biopsies and drainages, to the most complex, like TIPPS and stentgrafts, in a step-by-step fashion. Interventional Radiology is written by a host of highly experienced interventionists considered experts in their fields. The book imparts many tricks and tips learned through many years of experience of triumph and disasters of carrying out intervention. The handbook forms a companion which acts like an expert opinion, immediately available when planning and carrying out interventional procedures.
Endovascular Intervention
The endovascular specialist has arrived. Times are changing and it is vital for all those interested in endovascular intervention to train in and embrace these new technologies. The chapters in this book have all been written by carefully selected internationally renowned endovascular specialists. Each author is at the cutting edge of the endovascular revolution and they are the architects of change in the treatment of vascular disease. The topics have been chosen to reflect the multidisciplinary nature of modern endovascular practice. None are specialty-based and will appeal to surgeons, radiologists, cardiologists and all practitioners involved in the endovascular management of vascular disease. The management of aortic, thoracic, carotid, mesenteric and venous disease is changing. This book is designed to update you on these developments and to encourage you to participate in this exciting phase in the treatment of patients with vascular disease. Enjoy the read.
