    Abstract

    Our approach to vascular surgery is to recognize and contemplate perioperative complications and devise strategies to avoid them. These strategies are detailed in several of the major areas of arterial surgery. It is far easier to avoid complications than to deal with them when they occur. This is especially true for some complications in vascular surgery, such as intraoperative or postoperative cerebrovascular accident, atheroembolic complications, or distal thrombosis in lower-extremity reconstruction, that may result in either irreversible morbidity or death.
