Popis: The vascular system is comprised of three major sets of vessels: arteries, veins, and lymphatics. In this chapter, we address disorders of each vascular network. In particular, we discuss peripheral vascular disease, deep vein thrombosis, and lymphedema. We explain the treatment for each disorder, both traditional interventions and surgeries and new, cutting-edge techniques like lymph node transfer and lymphaticovenous anastomosis.
