Vascular & Endovascular Surgery

When a problem of the vascular system requires intervention in the blood vessels, such as wall repair, blockage removal, and rebuilding, it is referred to as vascular surgery. To treat various vascular illnesses, experts need both technical know-how and surgical skills. All vascular illnesses must be diagnosed, treated, and managed by vascular surgeons as a whole.

An extensive array of therapies, including medicinal, open surgical, and endovascular therapy of vascular illnesses, are offered by the Department of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery at Aster Whitefield. The department provides state-of-the-art care for vascular disorders such as aortic and peripheral aneurysms, long-segment arterial occlusive diseases of the abdomen and lower extremities, and open and endovascular Carotid treatments. The department also specializes in addressing a wide spectrum of venous issues affecting the extremities and abdominal region. Our expertise extends to minimally invasive laser therapy for varicose veins in the lower limbs, sclerotherapy, the placement of IVC filters, and thrombolysis to manage blood clots in the peripheral vasculature and much more.

Equipped with state-of-the-art infrastructure the department can perform high-end and complex vascular interventions. The infrastructure of the department includes modern equipment, such as a 3D angiography system, that provides high-resolution imaging to quickly diagnose and repair any damage to the blood vessels. Additionally, the department has an experienced team of surgeons and anesthesiologists who are highly trained in performing emergency surgeries of this nature.
