Rezensionen

"It is an excellent reference for vascular surgeons or
trainees, and stands up well to other established vascular books.
This is an important update with new chapters as well as revisions
to relevant chapters with a specific focus on endovascular
therapies and venous disease." (Doddy's, 7
