Review :
"An update from the 2010 seventh edition and published in association with the Society for Vascular Surgery, this is the "bible" of vascular surgery. As the encyclopedia of the field, it covers all aspects of normal and abnormal vascular phenomena from a medical, endovascular, and surgical standpoint. Written by the pioneers in their fields, it is updated with the most current guidelines on the diagnosis and management of vascular diseases, and it is comprehensive in its breadth of topics." -Dustin Y Yoon, MD, MS (Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine) Doody Review: 96 - 4 stars!
