Vascular Disease in Infants, Children and Young Adults

Vascular diseases affecting infants, children, and young adults represent a significant unmet need in the medical literature. Due to the rarity and heterogeneity of these conditions, existing resources are often fragmented, lacking a comprehensive and integrated perspective that encompasses anatomy, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and both medical and surgical management. Although clinical experience—frequently based on small case series—has grown for certain conditions, such as vascular malformations, knowledge remains limited for many others. Furthermore, there is a notable lack of dedicated guidelines from scientific societies specifically addressing pediatric vascular diseases. Against this backdrop, this book is positioned to become a definitive reference in the field. It offers a comprehensive and authoritative resource for a wide range of clinicians, from trainees to experienced specialists, supporting informed decision-making in the management of these rare, complex, and often severe conditions.
