Synopsis

Description

Tap into the latest knowledge and approaches to vascular medicine with the comprehensive, clinically oriented coverage of this new addition to the Braunwald’s Heart Disease family. You’ll find today’s best methods for identifying and treating arterial diseases of the limbs * renal, mesenteric and cerebral circulation problems * aortic aneurysms * vasospastic diseases * vasculitides * venous thromboembolisms * lymphedema * and much more.

Key Features

* Integrates a contemporary understanding of vascular biology with a thorough review of clinical vascular disease.
* Covers the fundamental biology of blood vessels and the pathobiologic foundation of vascular disease.
* Provides an in-depth, state-of-the-art review of all vascular diseases with emphasis on pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management.
* Discusses all of the latest advances in vascular medicine and facilitates the accurate diagnosis, evaluation, and treatment of vascular disease.
