Journal of Vascular Surgery

Journal of Vascular Surgery aims to be the premier international journal of medical, endovascular, and surgical care of vascular diseases. It aims to improve the management of patients with vascular disorders by publishing relevant papers focusing on investigation, management and prevention of aortic, cerebrovascular and peripheral arterial diseases, vascular access, trauma and malformations. The journal reports important medical advances, tests new hypotheses, and addresses current controversies. To achieve this goal, the Journal will publish original clinical studies, as well as papers that comment on the social, economic, ethical, legal, and political factors which relate to these aims. As the official publication of the Society for Vascular Surgery, the Journal will publish, after peer review, selected papers presented at the annual meeting of this organization, as well as original articles of affiliated vascular societies, and by members and non-members.
