VASCULAR SURGERY |
| |
In
todays society, most people are familiar with vascular disease,
or problems resulting from insufficient blood flow through the
circulatory system, however, remain undiagnosed and untreated in
many people. When left untreated, vascular disease can have
serious consequences, including high blood pressure, pain in the
extremities, and loss of limb(s), stroke and even death.
Vascular disease primarily affects people over 60 (particularly
men).
The entire vascular system but mainly the arteries is vulnerable
to the same build-up of atherosclerotic plaque that causes
artery disease. Risk factors for developing vascular disease
include:
-Hypertension
-High blood cholesterol
-Smoking -Diabetes
-Family history of vascular disease.
Our premier team of vascular experts are dedicated to offer a
complete range of diagnostic testing and treatment measures that
may eliminate symptoms, reduce their severity and decrease the
risk of death, stroke, amputation or other serious problems
caused by vascular diseases. They utilize the latest equipment
and minimally invasive procedures, including a state-of-the-art
Catheterization Laboratory, providing ultrasound/non-invasive
diagnostic testing of the arteries and veins of the body
investigation.
Endovascular Procedures: Our vascular surgeon has excellent
experience in all endovascular procedure balloon dilatation and
stenting for all peripheral arteries subclavian, carotid, aorta
renal.
Iliac, femoral and distal arteries beside to vein clinic: Our
vein clinic offers all the diagnostic and therapeutic facilities
for any vein diseases, management for varicose vein by all
technique, sclerotherapy, laser and vein endoscopic surgery.
Open Surgery Procedures
Carotid artery surgery: endarterectomy for internal carotid
stenosis (which causes C.V.A or T.I.A.), carotid body rumor and

(lower limbs claudication, foot ulcerations or non healing wound
especially in diabetic patients-diabetic foot clinic-),
Abdominal Arteries Operations: chronic intestinal arteries
ischemia -different vascular operations like: A-V Fistula for
dialysis (chronic renal failure),and vascular malformations
Sympathectomy (Thoracic & Lumber):for hyperhydrosis in limbs and
for ischemia or acute pain or causalgia in the limbs vascular
surgery at a glance:
Abdominal aortic aneurysm
