In writing this short monograph on 'Problems in Peripheral Vascular
Disease', I have tried to steer a course between a simplistic
dogmatic approach more appropriate to an under graduate text, and a
detailed specialist treatise of interest only to vascular surgeons.
Although arterial surgery has been performed for centuries, the
main indications in the past were to deal with the effects of
trauma and aneurysm formation. The development of arterio graphy
and the ability to see arterial blocks and stenoses allowed
surgeons to carry out increasingly sophistidated operations for an
enlarging range of pathological conditions. Even today, arterial
surgery continues to develop, and although we are often dealing
with the 'surgery of ruins', a successful outcome is just as
rewarding for surgeon and patient alike. In this book I have also
included a discussion on venous problems including a note about
recent developments in direct surgery of the deep veins of the
lower limb which could be a re warding field of endeavour for the
vascular surgeon. The original descriptions by Buerger and Raynaud
are taken from 'Classic Descriptions of Disease' by Ralph H. Major.
While reviewing my own surgical practice, I have had the pleasure
of reading once again the publications of H.H.G. Eastcott (arterial
surgery), J.T. Hobbs (varicose veins), G.L. Hill (Buerger's
disease), Adrian Marston (intestinal ischaemia), Martin Bimstingl
(vasospastic disorders) and C.H. Hawkes (lumbar canal stenosis)."
