Peripheral Vascular Surgery

Peripheral Vascular Surgery is a likely treatment option when minimally invasive techniques are no longer possible. In order to remove plaque build-up within the arteries, a bypass procedure is performed. During bypass surgery, a healthy blood vessel segment from the leg, or even an artificial blood vessel, is used to reroute the blood and bypass the clogged area. This treatment option is used for the treatment of vascular conditions such as peripheral artery disease and peripheral vascular disease.

Peripheral Vascular Disease: “It only hurts when I walk.”

Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD) is a blockage or narrowing of the blood vessels outside of the heart and brain that gets worse over time. Organs, especially the legs and feet, supplied by these vessels may not get enough blood flow to work well. As a result, ignoring leg pain caused by Peripheral Vascular Disease can lead to disability or loss of limb.
