Endovascular surgery is a minimally invasive procedure that uses catheters to diagnose and treat vascular diseases. Catheters are inserted into arteries and veins to access the vascular system. This allows surgeons to treat conditions affecting arteries like the aorta or carotid arteries. Some benefits of endovascular surgery are that it does not require incisions, results in shorter hospital stays and recovery times, and has lower risks of complications than open surgery. Common techniques include balloon angioplasty and stenting to open narrowed arteries, as well as procedures to remove blood clots or block blood flow to areas like tumors.

2. WHAT IS ENDOVASCULAR SURGERY
•Endovascular surgery describes minimally invasive
procedures to diagnose and treat vascular
disease. In endovascular surgery, our vascular
surgeons use catheters (long, thin, flexible tubes)
to access arteries and veins. This allows them to
diagnose and treat a variety of vascular conditions
anywhere in the body.

3. •Endovascular procedures are less invasive than
traditional open surgical techniques and can offer
benefits such as:
•No incisions
•Shorter hospital stay
•Less pain
•Lower risk of complications
•Shorter recovery time

5. DISEASES WHICH USING THIS SURGERY
• Conditions affecting the aorta (the body’s largest artery, which carries blood from the heart), such as aneurysms or dissection
• Cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis, the buildup of cholesterol and other fats (plaque) inside artery walls that causes
narrowed or blocked arteries
• Carotid artery disease: Narrowing or blockage of arteries that supply blood to the brain
• Chronic venous insufficiency: Damaged valves and/or weakened veins that are unable to efficiently send blood from limbs back to the
heart
• Critical limb ischemia: Narrowing or blockage of arteries that carry blood to the arms or legs
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT): Blood clots that develop in large, deep veins, usually in the legs
• Peripheral vascular disease: A complication of diabetes, caused by atherosclerosis in arteries that carry blood to the legs
• Pulmonary embolism: Blood clots that develop in leg or arm arteries and travel to the lung arteries
• Renal vascular disease, such as narrowing or blockage in arteries and veins of the kidneys
• Stroke: Partially or completely blocked blood flow to the brain, which can be caused by a blood clot blocking an artery or an artery that
ruptures in the brain
• Tumors, both cancerous and noncancerous
• Varicose veins: Visibly enlarged, bulging veins, typically in the legs, that can cause leg swelling and other symptoms
• Vascular malformations: Clusters of abnormal, enlarged arteries, veins, or lymph vessels caused by hereditary disorders

7. ENDOVASCULAR SURGERY
TECHNIQUES
• Endovascular procedures use catheters to help diagnose and
treat vascular and other conditions, sometimes during the same
procedure. The doctor makes a small incision in the groin area to
access a blood vessel and carefully threads a catheter into the
vessel. The doctor then injects dye through the catheter to show
the blood vessel on imaging.
• Using imaging such as ultrasound or fluoroscopy (X-ray video),
the doctor guides the catheter to the area for diagnosis or
treatment. Medical instruments in the catheters enable the doctor
to view the area in question and perform procedures such as
widening arteries or removing blockages.

9. • Our vascular surgeons and interventional radiologists offer the latest, minimally invasive
techniques for endovascular surgery, such as:
• Ablation: Use of intense heat to seal off varicose veins
• Artery bypass: Use of a graft (plastic tube or section of blood vessel from the patient’s body) to
reroute blood flow around a section of blocked artery
• Balloon angioplasty and stenting: Inflation of a tiny balloon at the end of the catheter to open
narrowed or blocked arteries, often with a stent (tiny wire mesh tube) that is implanted to keep
the artery open
• Blood clot procedures: Removal of a large blood clot or injection of medications that dissolve
the clot
• Carotid endarterectomy: Removal of plaque in neck arteries that carry blood to the brain
• Embolization: Use of medications or synthetic substances to block blood flow to a small,
specific area to treat aneurysms, vascular malformations, or cancerous or noncancerous
tumors
• Exclusion: Repair of an aneurysm by blocking off the weakened section of artery and rerouting
blood flow
