Acute Limb Ischemia: A Case-Based Approach to Management (en Inglés) - Gale L. Tang

This book offers up-to-date guidance on the management of acute limb ischemia (ALI), including the historical perspective and evolution of the disease presentation as well as current management strategies with a review of current evidence and a multidisciplinary case-based approach.

Part one of the book opens with a introduction to ALI, including demographics and pathophysiology of the disease, as well as a review of large RCTs and historical outcomes. Subsequent chapters outline diagnostic strategies, imaging and clinical decision-making for the best approach. Additional chapters in this section describe the evolution of endovascular devices for ALI, short- and long-term medical management and complications. Part two is a collection of clinical cases with expert commentary, discussing dissection, popliteal aneurysm, acute thrombosis, upper and lower extremity embolus, infrainguinal bypass and more.

Practical and concise, Acute Limb Ischemia will be an excellent resource for vascular surgeons, interventional radiologists and interventional cardiologists.
