【 摘 要 】

Clinical practice in vascular medicine has greatly changed over the last decades. A close look at the recent past reveals that vascular research has covered an astonishing variety of topics and scopes. Our understanding of vascular diseases is continuously expanding, and new therapeutic approaches are being developed. Multiple factors have driven the evolution of vascular medicine—including disruptive innovations, particularly those involving minimally invasive techniques and technologies; the development of evidence-based practice; and extending the use of minimally invasive interventions beyond traditional vascular interventions. In this commentary, we summarize the main achievements characterizing research in vascular medicine, and future perspectives.
