Whenever possible, your surgeon will use an endovascular (minimally invasive) technique to treat your arterial disease. 

Compared to traditional (open) surgery, endovascular procedures let you recover faster with less pain and scarring.  

Conditions We Treat  

Our experts treat and other vascular problems that include:  

• Thoracic aortic aneurysm  
• Thoracic aortic dissection  
• Abdominal aortic aneurysm  
• Abdominal aortic dissection  
• Carotid artery disease  
• Peripheral arterial disease  
• Kidney and intestinal artery disease  
• Pulmonary embolism  
• Radial Artery Program for Arterial Disease  

Interventional procedures to treat arterial disease typically involve a needle stick in the groin to introduce a catheter.  At times, vessels in the groin are not suitable for this process, or more than one access point is required.  

Our vascular surgeons, along with our cardiology colleagues, have expertise in using an alternative entry through the radial artery in the arm to treat a range of vascular conditions, including peripheral vascular disease, abdominal aortic aneurysm, splenic aneurysms and more.
