PY - 2017 T2 - Hurst's The Heart, 14e AB - Peripheral vascular diseases are a diverse collection of disorders that affect all organ systems. Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is the vascular disease most commonly encountered by the cardiologist; however, disease of the lymphatics and veins is equally common globally. For the cardiologist or internist with an interest in vascular disorders, a systematic and comprehensive approach is required. This chapter will cover commonly encountered areas of vascular disease, specifically the diagnosis and management of PAD. Accompanying chapters on lymphedema, venous disease, and aortic and cerebrovascular disease will address these topics in more detail.
