“The audience includes practicing vascular surgeons, vascular surgery trainees, interventional radiologists, and internists with an interest in vascular medicine. Because CVMs are a rare clinical entity, this book is a valuable resource for background information and treatment strategies for anyone who encounters these patients in their practice. …  This book is of exceptional quality and immensely useful as a supplemental reference for vascular practitioners.” (Neel A. Mansukhani, Doody's Book Reviews, April, 2018)
