Vascular

Expert Treatment Process

Our vascular surgeons specialize in treating conditions affecting the circulatory system, including peripheral artery disease, aneurysms, varicose veins, and carotid artery disease. Proper vascular health is essential to prevent serious complications like stroke or limb loss.

We utilize minimally invasive endovascular techniques such as angioplasty, stenting, and atherectomy, employing advanced imaging for real-time guidance and precision.

The treatment process begins with a diagnostic evaluation involving vascular ultrasound for non-invasive imaging of blood flow, angiography for detailed images of blood vessels, and ankle-brachial index measurements to assess blood flow to the limbs.

Treatment planning focuses on risk factor management by addressing hypertension, cholesterol, and diabetes, with surgical intervention prioritizing minimally invasive options. During the procedure, endovascular techniques involve access through small incisions, often in the groin, with imaging guidance for accuracy.

Postoperative care includes monitoring vital signs and the puncture site, along with medication adjustments where anticoagulants may be prescribed.

What to Expect and How to Prepare

Before surgery, a medication review is necessary as some drugs may need to be paused, and fasting guidelines are typically required.

After surgery, a short period of bed rest helps prevent bleeding, and a gradual return to normal activities is advised.

Patient tips include maintaining wound care by keeping the incision site clean and dry, being aware of symptoms like numbness, pain, or color changes in limbs and reporting them promptly, and making lifestyle adjustments such as quitting smoking, eating healthily, and exercising regularly to improve vascular health.
