AAA Repair is a surgical procedure to treat abdominal aortic aneurysms and weakened areas in the aorta's wall. During this procedure, the weakened section of the aorta is replaced or reinforced with a synthetic graft to prevent the aneurysm from rupturing. This surgical repair is crucial in reducing the risk of life-threatening complications associated with AAA, such as internal bleeding and organ damage. Our skilled vascular surgeons employ advanced techniques and technology to ensure optimal outcomes for patients undergoing AAA Repair.
Carotid Endarterectomy is a surgical procedure to remove plaque buildup from the carotid arteries in the neck and supply blood to the brain. This procedure is vital in reducing the risk of stroke caused by narrowed or blocked carotid arteries. During the surgery, the surgeon makes an incision in the neck, accesses the carotid artery, and removes the plaque, restoring proper blood flow to the brain. Carotid Endarterectomy is a proven method for preventing strokes and improving overall vascular health.
Fem-Pop Bypass Surgery treats peripheral artery disease (PAD) in the legs. PAD happens when arteries in the legs become narrowed or blocked, causing reduced blood flow and leg pain. During this surgery, a graft creates a bypass around the blocked artery, restoring blood flow to the lower legs. This procedure helps relieve leg pain and improves mobility and quality of life for patients with PAD. Our experienced surgical team uses advanced techniques to ensure successful outcomes for patients.
