    • French
    Sous l'égide de la Société française de médecine vasculaire (SFMV), du Collège des enseignants de médecine vasculaire (CEMV) et du Collège français de pathologie vasculaire (CFPV). Le Traité de médecine vasculaire est venu combler un vide et s'est rapidement imposé comme ouvrage de référence en langue française en médecine vasculaire. Fort de ce succès et compte tenu de la rapidité des évolutions dans ce domaine, la pertinence d'un ouvrage consacré plus spécifiquement aux explorations vasculaires s'imposait. Cet ouvrage, est le fruit, comme le Traité de médecine vasculaire, d'un travail collaboratif des différentes entités de la médecine vasculaire : la Société française de médecine vasculaire, le Collège français de pathologie vasculaire, le Collège des enseignants de médecine vasculaire. Regroupant plus de 90 auteurs, très richement illustré et présentant la synthèse des travaux dans le domaine, cet ouvrage aborde toute la gamme des explorations réalisées en médecine vasculaire. Si la première partie s'attache aux explorations ultrasoniques, base historique du métier de médecin vasculaire, une deuxième partie aborde les explorations de la microcirculation, les explorations fonctionnelles artérielles, veineuses et lymphatiques. Le lecteur y trouve aussi des arbres décisionnels concernant les stratégies d'exploration. Enfin, une dernière partie reprend les standards de qualité des explorations vasculaires, réalisés par les groupes de travail de la Société Française de Médecine Vasculaire. Ce traité est incontournable pour tous les spécialistes amenés à participer à la prise en charge des maladies vasculaires.

  • Necklift, An Issue of Clinics in Plastic Surgery

    • Malcolm D. Paul
    • English
    Very focused reviews examine the relevant options in rejuvenating the aging neck. Options in treating the aging neck include non-invasive, minimally invasive, and open surgical approaches. The geometry of the neck, as a simple yet non-hollow cylinder, is examined anatomically and through procedures specific to this unique area. Topical treatments for the aging skin, advances in non-invasive and minimally invasive technologies using various injectables and energy sources, and a range of open procedures that consider all of the internal components of the aging neck are presented. A special Techniques section poses questions to an international group of surgeons who respond with their preferred techniques and approaches and outcomes for such situations as defatting the heavy neck, approach to young versus older neck, use of fibrin glue, and more. Guest Editor Malcolm Paul, who works in academia, private practice, and with technologic companies, leads this review.
