Rare Vascular Disorders: A practical guide for the vascular specialist - Tapa dura

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.
