Abstract
Vascular surgery has emerged as an independent speciality in India. The growth and development of vascular surgery in India has been slow, yet steady. It is a matter of concern that almost a quarter century down the line this speciality is faced with several problems. This article examines the issue of whether it is feasible for vascular surgery to exist as an independent subspeciality. Does one follow a conciliatory or a confrontational approach with the 'competing specialities'?
