Inpatient pediatric clinical consultations to vascular surgery within a children’s hospital

Consults to VS in a CH are infrequent and encompass a wide breadth of vascular disease. In contrast to the adult population, medical therapies are frequently utilized, whereas a minority undergo open or endovascular interventions. At 20 consults per year, a typical trainee may be involved in 40 to 60 pediatric cases during their residency. Exposure to the pediatric population is a small but important niche in vascular education and practice.
