Advances in Vascular and Endovascular Surgery: Second Edition

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to invite you to contribute to this Special Issue, entitled “Advances in Vascular and Endovascular Surgery: Second Edition”. For more details on our first edition, please visit https://www.mdpi.com/journal/jcm/special_issues/10GX0CN4Q4.

Over the last two decades, endovascular treatment options for a myriad of vascular diseases have been increasingly improved and developed. Aortic surgery stands out as a prominent example where endovascular techniques have successfully complemented established open surgical procedures. Ultimately, the popularization of endovascular aortic repair, which itself has developed to a point where highly complex aortic pathologies can be treated using a large repertoire of off-the-shelf and custom-made devices, has undoubtedly contributed to improved patient care. Open and endovascular techniques and their development for peripheral arterial or carotid diseases have been equally important in the vascular surgeon‘s armament, and exciting new developments could spur relevant clinical advances in the treatment of patients requiring hemodialysis access. As patient care has evolved, so has the way we train vascular surgery residents, with exciting open and endovascular training simulators being developed and applied.

This Special Issue of the Journal of Clinical Medicine, entitled “Advances in Vascular and Endovascular Surgery: Second Edition”, provides an opportunity for authors and readers dedicated to improving vascular education and patient care to create and refer to a collection of papers on advances and new insights within our field. The Special Issue aims to highlight exciting developments that could improve how we diagnose and treat patients.

It is our pleasure to invite and welcome you to contribute your manuscripts on advances in vascular and endovascular surgery for peer review. We look forward to a completed collection of high-quality papers that will promote scientific communication of our knowledge with the goal of positively influencing the decision-making process and care for our patients.
