Foreword
“The glory of medicine is that it is constantly moving forward, that there is always more to learn.” William James Mayo, 1928
Progress in medicine has been relentless and, during the last two decades, endovascular treatment revolutionized the management of vascular diseases. Treatment of aortic and arterial aneurysms has been no exception. The publication of this comprehensive textbook on popliteal aneurysms has been timely and greatly needed by trainees, practicing vascular surgeons, and other vascular specialists. Aneurysms of the Popliteal Artery edited and in great part written by Antonino Cavallaro, past Professor of Surgery of the “Sapienza” University of Rome, Italy, is an outstanding multidisciplinary contribution to the field of aneurysm treatment, scripted in collaboration with interventional radiologists and surgical pathologists, all from leading Italian medical schools and hospitals. Stimulated by his first acquaintance with popliteal aneurysms as a young surgical pathologist, Professor Cavallaro presents us his rich and expert lifetime experience that he collected at his renowned many years of surgical practice at “Sapienza” and during the time he spent in a small bush hospital in remote Southern Cameroon.
