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.
