Over the course of my career I have had the opportunity too learn from many very talented, knowledgeable and compassionate physicians. In this collection of short essays, I hope to pass back to others tidbits of knowledge that I have learned during my career. Many of these articles have been inspired by patients that I have seen that struggled to get the care they needed.
Arterial and Venous testing in patients with lower extremity ulcers
Cholesterol embolization is an infrequent sequelae after lower extremity revascularization.
Reperfusion syndrome and inury can occur after revascularization in patients with critical limb ischemia but the entity is poorly understood
Venous claudication occurs when venous drainage from the left is impaired, Diagnosis and treatment are often delayed.
Varicocele outcomes when performed by a skill interventionalist are outstanding
Critical Limb Ischemia (CLI) is a severe blockage of the arteries which markedly reduces blood flow to feet.
Uterine fibroids, also known as leiomyomata or myomas, are benign (noncancerous) tumors of the muscular wall of the uterus.
Diabetic Foot Ulceration (DFU) is one of the most severe consequences of diabetes.
Pelvic congestion syndrome (PCS) is a condition that causes significant pain and discomfort for women.
Valves are one of the key components of normal venous function. There are valves throughout the veins in the body.
CT Angiography is one of the best non-invasive anatomical imaging tools available.
It is important to recognize that there are 2 types of PCS, primary and secondary as their treatments differ.
Ulcers (wounds) involving the feet and toes are most commonly seen in diabetic patients and are commonly called diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs).
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and its more severe variant critical limb ischemia (CLI) can be notoriously difficult to diagnose.
