Session 23: What’s Up Doc? Vascular Surgery Options for Patients with Recalcitrant Arterial or Venous Ulcers

What’s Up Doc? Vascular Surgery Options for Patients with Recalcitrant Arterial or Venous Ulcers

Moderator/Speaker: Jason Crowner, MD
Speaker: William Marston, MD
When should a clinician consider vascular interventions for the patient? Options exist for endovascular and open procedures to help heal both venous and ischemic leg ulcers. Knowing what interventions can be used and how well they will work depends on the patient and the extent of their disease. This session, designed for the wound care practitioner, will review endovascular and surgical alternatives for vascular ulcer patients that have failed standard medical treatment.
