Vascular surgery (also known as angiosurgery) is a branch of medicine that specializes in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases of the arteries, veins, and lymphatic vessels, as well as related vascular pathologies such as aneurysms, thrombosis, and varicose veins.

Who it’s for

Vascular surgery is suitable for patients with arterial and venous pathologies who require surgical intervention when conservative treatment is ineffective. A vascular surgeon should be consulted for varicose veins, thrombosis, thrombophlebitis, atherosclerosis, trophic ulcers, and other vascular lesions that manifest as pain, edema, cramps, heaviness in the legs, or vascular “stars”.

Key benefits

The advantages of vascular surgery include faster recovery, less tissue damage, a lower risk of complications, and the possibility of performing minimally invasive interventions, which often allow patients to return home the same day.
