Vascular Surgery

Overview

Department of Vascular & Endovascular Surgery offer a wide range of services for the diagnosis and treatment of conditions related to arterial, venous and lymphatic systems. Vascular surgery is a specialty of surgery in which diseases of the vascular system, or arteries and veins, are managed by medical therapy, minimally-invasive catheter procedures, and surgical reconstruction. Endovascular surgery is a rapidly advancing field, where the surgeon works via a needle puncture and is able to “recanalise” narrowed or blocked arteries, and prevent dangerously dilated arteries (aneurysms) from bursting by inserting an artificial artery inside the abnormal segment.

The core activities of the vascular specialist include:
  • Symptom relief from peripheral arterial and venous disease
  • Healing venous leg ulceration
  • Promoting cardiovascular health
  • Improving quality of life in patients with vascular disease
  • Multi-disciplinary management of the vascular complications of diabetes and renal disease
  • Providing a renal access service for patients requiring hemodialysis
  • Preventing mortality from abdominal aortic aneurysm
  • Preventing stroke due to carotid artery disease
  • Preventing irreversible damage to the limbs

  • Diabetic foot surgeries
  • Thoracic out let surgeries- Scalenectomy/ cervical rib excision)
  • Carotid endarterectomy – Surgery for Stroke Prevention
  • Bypass Surgery for Leg Arteries (fem-pop, fem-fem, fem distal)
  • Management for gangrene of limbs to prevent amputation
  • Surgery for Aortic Aneurysm/ Aortic occlusion (open aortic repair/Aorto-femoral bypass)
  • Vascular control for bleeding vessels
  • Vascular malformation excision
  • AV access surgeries (brachio cephalic, brachio basilic fistula with transposition and AV grafts)

  • Endovascular aneurysm repair for Thoracic Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (EVAR/TEVAR)
  • Radiofrequency Ablation of varicose veins
  • Injection treatment (scelerotherapy) for Varicose Veins
  • Carotid/Renal/ Subclavian angiography and angioplasty with stenting
  • Peripheral angiography with balloon angioplasty and stenting of arm or leg arteries
  • Aorta and Visceral artery angioplasty
  • Venous angiography with IVC filters placement and angioplasty of stenotic veins.
  • Management of Deep Vein Thrombosis (including placement of IVC filters/stents and catheter directed thrombolysis)
  • Covered Stent Grafts for Trauma, Arterio-Venous Fistulae and Aneurysms
  • Chemoport and PICC line insertion
  • Permcath insertion

  • Acute Limb ischemia
  • Vascular trauma

“My initial fear of pain after surgery disappeared with the physiotherapy I received at Parvathy Hospital. I am now able to climb the stairs, cook for my family and live a life I love after my knee replacement surgery at the hospital.”

“I was confined to the bed for 5 years because of Rheumatoid Arthritis before the surgery. I thought I should not live. Knee replacement has given me a life and one worth living at age of 21.”

“I thought I will never be able to walk or cook for my family. My surgery at Parvathy Hospital gave me my life back again. I have a new life after my knee replacement.”
