Author Description

<p>This book presents an in-depth guide to deep venous arterialization (DVA). DVA is an emerging technological and clinical solution for patients with peripheral artery disease who have no options for limb salvage based on conventional vascular techniques. It serves to salvage limbs in patients who would otherwise be amputated. For DVA to be successful in preventing amputation patient selection, pre-procedure imaging, technical expertise, and post-operative wound management must be optimized. The book takes a step-by-step approach to DVA to guide the clinical team through the patient journey from meeting a potential candidate for DVA through to saving the leg. Chapters provide a reference for patient selection, procedural steps, and post-operative wound care management. This is an ideal guide for interventional radiologists, vascular surgeons, trainees, and all medical professionals caring for patients with severe peripheral artery disease. </p>
