 This course is intended to provide an in-depth examination of a spectrum of topics related to the management of patients with vascular disease. A comprehensive review of existing data as well as new information regarding the natural history, pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of commonly encountered vascular problems will be presented by an outstanding faculty of over 40 nationally recognized authorities leading to a better understanding of contemporary standards of effective and cost-efficient care as well as future trends in vascular surgery.
The wide scope of this course allows the faculty to provide current updates and advances in many areas of vascular surgery and to indicate the advantages and possible disadvantages of varying methods of management for a wide variety of problems in vascular surgery.
