Multisystem revascularization

Ochsner J. 2009 Winter;9(4):211-9.

Abstract

Atherosclerosis affects all major vascular territories. Both surgical and endovascular revascularization techniques have evolved, with more and more patients presenting with disease in multiple vascular beds. This can lead to difficult decision-making and the potential for complications. In this article, we review the available literature to help the clinician decide on optimum sequence, timing, and mode of multisystem revascularization.

Keywords: Atherosclerosis; multisystem; revascularization.
