Renowned as the essential reference for all venous specialists, phlebologists, vascular surgeons, and vascular medicine physicians, the fifth edition of the Handbook of Venous and Lymphatic Disorders: Guidelines of the American Venous Forum covers the investigation, prevention, evaluation, and treatment of venous and lymphatic disorders. The full spectrum of acute and chronic venous disorders, chronic lymphedema and chylous complications are included. New or entirely revised chapters discuss in detail basic considerations, diagnostic evaluation, management of acute venous thrombosis, and chronic venous disorders, including deep venous disease and venous ulcers. Medical treatments, including compression therapy, veno-active compounds, and new oral antithrombotic medications, are discussed. Minimally invasive endovascular techniques to treat deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism with catheter-directed thrombolysis, pharmaco-mechanical, mechanical thrombectomy, and venous stenting are presented. Few areas in medicine have progressed as fast as minimally invasive outpatient treatment of chronic venous disease. Endovenous therapies include laser and radiofrequency ablation, liquid and foam sclerotherapy, minimally invasive surgery, cyanoacrylate embolization, mechanico-chemical or ultrasonic ablations, among others. Written by the world’s foremost venous experts, leaders of the American Venous Forum, and international authorities, the Handbook has become the most important reference for both day-to-day management and investigation of venous and lymphatic disorders.

The human wound-healing process could be divided into four discrete phases, which have also been indicated as the hemostasis, the inflammatory, the proliferation, and the remodeling phase. For a wound to be healed efficaciously, all four phases must sequentially happen at an expected time setting. Numerous aspects can hinder one or more stages of this procedure, thus can cause inappropriate or diminished wound healing. This book reviews the recent literature on the most significant factors that affect wound healing and the potential cellular and/or molecular mechanisms involved. The factors discussed include physiology of wound healing, interferon, stem cells and photobiomodulation, chronic venous ulcer, chronic fistula, bionanomaterials, topical antiseptic agents, including silver and sodium hypochlorite solution, diabetic ulcers, and nutritional supplements such as copper.

The chapters in this book focus on the physical, social, and emotional components of the concept of quality of life. How diseases affect the quality of life of people is mainly discussed. The influence of diseases on quality of life in age-specific periods such as childhood, youth, and old age is also emphasized. In some non-disease-related environmental factors, specific social phenomena have also been analyzed. I hope that current research and research results in the book will be used to increase the quality of life by health professionals. This book will attract not only health workers but also environmentalists and social scientists and behavioral scientists.
