Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

The Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery focuses on endovascular and surgical interventions for complex cardiovascular pathologies. Recent articles discuss treatments for pulmonary embolism, including interventional therapies and the role of pulmonary embolism response teams. The journal also covers aortic repair procedures such as total arch replacement and thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR), with a focus on techniques for managing the left subclavian artery and aortic arch pathologies. Peripheral artery disease interventions, including femoro-popliteal stenting and deep venous arterialization for chronic limb-threatening ischemia, are also featured. Additionally, the journal publishes research on carotid endarterectomy and the use of left ventricular assist devices.
