This multidisciplinary book provides an in-depth review of the human vascular system with emphasis on anatomy, embryology, pathology, and surgical features. Arteries, veins, and lymphatics are each assigned chapters that discuss their relevant anatomy, topography, embryology, histology, imaging, pathology, surgical significance, and complications. The comprehensive text was written and edited by leading experts in the field and is ideal for surgeons, proceduralists, anatomists, trainees, and students. Informative chapters are sectioned according to their part of the body.
