Increasing evidence suggests that particularly in high-risk
patients, endovascular solutions offer substantial advantages
compared to vascular surgical procedures. Nevertheless, growing
numbers of procedures are associated with an increased incidence of
complications. Knowledge of specific complications in different
vessel areas will support the interventionist in preventing such
adverse events and if necessary, provide considerable reassurance
if such complications need to be resolved. In Complications in
Peripheral Vascular Interventions, typical and atypical
complications are described for all peripheral vessel areas, and
methods for how to handle these events are outlined. The book is
divided in two parts. Part 1 reviews general aspects on
complications in peripheral interventions, and Part II covers the
specific vessel areas. Each chapter on the specific vessel area
includes Introduction to the frequency and kind of complications in
this vessel area Factors identifying high-risk patients for these
complications Complications of specific interventional steps and
tools Endovascular techniques to resolve these complications
Methods to avoid complications Summary Checklist for emergency
equipment Offering practical tips for the interventionist in the
cath lab, high-volume interventionists share their experiences by
reviewing complicated cases and outlining different strategies used
in real-life scenarios.
