Selection of patients for peripheral revascularization surgery.
The recognition of the extent of vascular disease has introduced several medical subspecialties, radiology and vascular surgery, to a multidisciplinary approach to these problems. Of particular importance is the primary care physician, who often is the first to see these patients and should be familiar with common vascular problems. Only then will initial care and disposition be appropriate.
