Vascular surgery encompasses treating vessels of the body including arterial, venous, and lymphatic systems, exclusive of the intracranial and coronary arteries. A vascular surgeon performs operations in various areas of the body including internal organs, legs, arms and tissues. The procedures are aimed at treating a range of health problems, including peripheral life-threatening aneurysms, artery disease, aortic disease, mesenteric disease and carotid artery disease. During these procedures, a table extension, or AV fistula board/table, may be used to provide a sterile surface for surgical instruments as well as patient safety straps and siderail adaptors.
