Complications in Vascular Surgery: Current Updates and Perspectives

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to invite you to contribute to this Special Issue entitled “Complications in Vascular Surgery: Current Updates and Perspectives”.

Complications in patients undergoing vascular surgery (including bleeding, stroke, infections, technical failure, etc.) have a significant clinical impact on the outcomes of vascular surgery patients and represent a burden to national health care systems, potentially leading to prolonged lengths of stay, discharge to a non-home facility, unplanned re-admissions, and an increased overall morbidity and mortality. 

The existing literature on this subject is widespread but disorganized and does not fully explore the individual risk factors and the personalized and multidisciplinary strategies and interventions that should be designed to mitigate these factors.

Therefore, the different papers included in this Special Issue will detail the potentially modifiable procedure- and patient-related conditions that endanger the achievement of optimal outcomes in vascular surgery, with the aim of implementing an increased overall quality of care in this subpopulation.

Thank you in advance for your contributions relating to this interesting subject.

Dr. Yamume Tshomba
Guest Editor
