Add to basketThis multidisciplinary textbook has been written and edited by multiple experts in the field to explore and define the management strategies for all types of dialysis access. With kidney failure a major public health problem worldwide and the care of these patients being widely regarded as suboptimal in the conventional surgical and interventional world, this reference combines the experience and knowledge of a world-renowned team of surgeons, interventionalists and nephrologists to definitively address this topic without regard to specialty.
Principles of Dialysis Access provides a thorough review of the management of all types of access for patients requiring dialysis. It is designed for access surgeons, interventional radiologists, interventional nephrologists, nephrologists and all others specializing in dialysis access. As the only comprehensive multi-author interdisciplinary textbook on this topic, it is essential reading for all who specialize in this field.
Dr. Illig attended Harvard followed by Cornell Medical College in New York, graduating AOA in 1988. He completed his general surgical residency, research fellowship, and vascular surgical fellowship at the University of Rochester, joining the faculty there in 1997. He served as Program Director and Division Chief in Rochester until 2011, followed by seven years as Director of the Division of Vascular Surgery and Associate Chair for Faculty Development and Mentoring at the University of South Florida in Tampa. Because of his increasing clinical and academic focus on dialysis access, he relocated to the Dialysis Access Institute in Orangeburg, SC, then the busiest such center in the world, in 2018. He now practices at FLOW Vascular Institute in Houston where he serves as Chief Medical Officer and Director of Research and Education. Dr. Illig’s clinical practice is now exclusively devoted to arteriovenous access and venous thoracic outlet syndrome in dialysis patients. He has published over 120 peer-reviewed manuscripts, 55 chapters, multiple invited reviews and commentaries, and three books, including two editions of the definitive multi-author textbook on thoracic outlet syndrome. He’s one of the developers of the concept that the venous thoracic outlet plays a role in many patients with AV access dysfunction, and has surgically treated over 100 people with this condition, a procedure that is increasingly being performed elsewhere in the world. He’s an Academic Fellow of the Society for Vascular Surgery, a member of the American Surgical Association, and served on the Vascular Surgery Board of the ABS, where he has been a senior board examiner for the past 12 years. Current research efforts are focused on the hemodynamics of dialysis access and focused comprehensive dialysis access education.
