Vascular and Endovascular Surgery
Conditions We Treat
Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm
An abdominal aortic aneurysm, also known as AAA, occurs when a weakened area in the wall of the abdominal aorta bulges or expands. The aorta is the major blood vessel that supplies blood to the body. The most common location of an abdominal aortic aneurysm is located below the kidney arteries, called an intrarenal AAA. A ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm can cause life-threatening bleeding. An aneurysm can be characterized by its location, shape, and cause.

Aortic dissection is a rare and uncommon emergency situation where the aorta, the major blood vessel that branches off from the heart and carries blood to the body, tears. Sudden, severe pain in the back and chest, unconsciousness, and difficulty breathing and speaking are all symptoms, and immediate emergency treatment is required.

A brain aneurysm, also called a cerebral or intracranial aneurysm, is an abnormal bulging outward of one of the arteries in the brain. This may be due to a weakness or injury to one or more of the three layers of tissue in the vessel wall.
Go to Detail PageCarotid Artery Disease
With time, the carotid arteries can progressively narrow, usually from cholesterol build up and is called "plaque." Most of the time, the narrowing does not cause any problems, but if the build-up becomes severe or active, it may cause a stroke or transient neurological symptoms.

Chronic limb-threatening ischemia is a serious condition where blood flow to the arms or legs is blocked. It can happen when peripheral artery disease becomes severe.

Patients with PAD or diabetes can develop diabetic foot problems. This includes neuropathy, skin changes, foot ulcers, poor circulation, calluses and amputation. The most common foot problem is neuropathy, which occurs when there is nerve damage causing pain, tingling and burning sensation in the foot. It can also lessen the ability to feel pain, heat, or cold.

A diabetic foot ulcer is an open sore or wound that can occur in patients with diabetes and is commonly located on the bottom of the foot. Ulcers that become infected, result in most patients having to be hospitalized, increase the risk of potential lower extremity amputation and in extreme cases, may cause death.

Certified lymphedema therapists utilize Complete Decongestive Therapy- the gold standard treatment consisting of manual lymph drainage, bandaging, and exercises to help with movement and drainage of the lymph fluid and reduction in limb size.
Go to Detail PageMesenteric Artery Stenosis
Mesenteric artery stenosis is a condition where the arteries that bring blood to the intestines are blocked or narrow. This is usually caused by a buildup of plaque on the artery wall, but it can also be caused by a blood clot or injury to the area.
Go to Detail PagePeripheral Arterial Disease
Peripheral artery disease happens when plaques made of fatty substances, cholesterol and waste products deposit inside the artery walls, decreasing blood flow. Sometimes called clogging or hardening of the arteries, this can affect arteries in the heart, brain, legs, kidneys and other organs.
Go to Detail PagePost-Thrombotic Syndrome
Post-thrombotic syndrome is a condition that people can develop after they have a deep vein thrombosis (a type of blood clot). It can happen weeks or months after the initial clot.
Go to Detail PageRenal Artery Disease
The renal artery carries blood to the kidney. When there is a narrowing (stenosis) of the artery and blood flow is slowed, the kidney does not have normal function, causing high blood pressure, kidney atrophy (disease), and other conditions.
Go to Detail PageStroke
There are two major types of stroke: hemorrhagic and ischemic. A hemorrhagic stroke refers to bleeding occurring in the brain or in the space surrounding the brain (subarachnoid hemorrhage). An ischemic stroke occurs when there is occlusion of a blood vessel, resulting in lack of blood supply to an area of the brain and death of brain tissue (infarction).

Vascular Brain Tumors
Vascular brain tumors are a type of tumor that is caused by abnormal blood vessel growth. These tumors are benign.

Venous Disease
Venous disease (insufficiency) occurs when the valves in the leg veins do not work as they should, either blocking blood flow down the legs or allowing backflow leakage.
