Gloviczki, Peter (ed)
Handbook of venous disorders: guidelines of the American Venous Forum - 2nd - London Arnold 2001 - 557; ill.,bibls.; BookFind
Part 1 Basic consideration: venous and lymphatic diseases - a historical review; the development and anatomy of the venous system; the physiology and haemodynamics of the venous circulation; the prevalence and natural history of acute deep venous thrombosis; the path physiology and haemodynamics of chronic venous insufficiency; the pathology and cell biology of chronic venous insufficiency. Part 2 Evaluation and diagnosis: clinical examination of patients with acute and chronic venous disease; hypercoagulable states in venous disease; the classification and diagnostic evaluation of chronic venous disease; indirect non-invasive tests (plethysmography); direct non-invasive tests (duplex scan) for the evaluation of acute venous disease; direct non-invasive tests (duplex scan) for the evaluation of chronic venous obstruction and valvular incompetence; lower extremity ascending and descending venography; direct venous pressure measurement - role in the assessment of venous disease; upper extremity venography; computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging in the diagnosis of acute thromboembolism and chronic venous disorders. Part 3 Management of acute venous disease: superficial thrombophlebitis; medical treatment of acute deep venous thrombosis; catheter directed thrombolysis for treatment of acute deep venous thrombosis; surgical treatment of acute deep venous thrombosis; endovascular and surgical of acute axillary-subclavian venous thrombosis.
Hardback Since the publication of the first edition five years ago, substantial new information has emerged in many areas of acute and chronic venous disease, on venous malformations and lymphatic disorders. This revised, updated and expanded edition takes account of these developments and provides comprehensive and up-to-date information on epidemiology, pathophysiology, clinical evaluation, diagnostic imaging, medical, endovascular and surgical management. New chapters on reporting standards and outcome analysis and a new report of the American Venous Forum Research Committee on basic and clinical research in venous and lymphatic disease are also included. A key feature of this book is the integration of surgical, endovascular and medical therapies helping to make it an essential reference source on the diagnosis and treatment of venous and lymphatic diseases. The book is authored by founding members of the American Venous Forum; a society dedicated to research, education and the clinical practice of venous and lymphatic diseases. This edition includes several international authors, all expert in venous disease, most being regular or honorary members of the American Venous Forum.The book is primarily intended for medical students, house officers, residents and fellows in vascular surgery, interventional radiology, vascular and internal medicine, cardiology, phlebology and dermatology. It will also be of great interest to physicians, surgeons, vascular laboratory technologists and vascular nurses who are involved in the investigation, evaluation or management of venous and lymphatic diseases or malformations. The manual is for medical students, house officers, fellows in vascular surgery, radiology or vascular medicine, and all physicians and surgeons who participate in the evaluation and treatment of venous or lymphatic disease. This revised second edition is expanded and fully up-to-date, reflecting modern advances in vascular diagnosis and therapy.
