An AVF (Arteriovenous Fistula) aneurysm is a bulging or enlargement in the vein where the fistula is created for dialysis. It can happen over time due to high blood flow and repeated needle use. If it grows too large, bleeds, or causes pain, treatment may be needed to prevent complications.

How do Vascular Surgeons Embolise ?

Coil embolization is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat abnormal blood vessels that are bleeding or at risk of bleeding.

During the procedure, we insert a thin, flexible tube called a catheter into the affected blood vessel, guided by imaging techniques like fluoroscopy.

Once the catheter is in place, we deploy tiny coils made of materials like platinum or stainless steel into the vessel.

These coils block the blood flow to the abnormal vessel, effectively sealing it off and stopping the bleeding. Over time, the body forms scar tissue around the coils, further ensuring that the vessel remains closed.

Kindly visit your Vascular Surgeon to Know About Coil Embolisation

Superior mesenteric artery pseudoaneurysms

Though rare, but pose serious health risks. These abnormal vascular formations result from weakened arterial walls, often triggered by trauma, surgery, or inflammation.

Symptoms can vary from abdominal pain to life-threatening gastrointestinal bleeding.

Prompt diagnosis is essential through advanced imaging techniques like CT angiography.

Treatment options range from minimally invasive endovascular procedures, such as stent graft placement or embolization, to open surgical repair, depending on the pseudoaneurysm's size and patient condition.

Early intervention is critical to prevent rupture and its potentially fatal consequences, making prompt medical attention crucial for patients with suspected SMA pseudoaneurysms.

Yes !! Stenting is also done outside the heart …. Abdominal Vessel Stenting

Infra-renal aortic stenosis is where the narrowing of the blood vessel in the abdomen occurs below the level of the kidneys. This condition involves the constriction of the main artery responsible for carrying oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the lower body. It occurs when the aortic artery narrows due to the accumulation of plaque or calcification, impeding the smooth flow of blood. Left untreated, it can increase the risk of complications such decreased lower limb perfusion or gangrene.

Stenting is a commonly used treatment modality for infra-renal aortic stenosis. During the procedure, a thin, expandable tube called a stent is inserted into the narrowed section of the aorta. The stent acts as a scaffold, widening the artery and restoring proper blood flow to the lower body. This minimally invasive approach offers several advantages over traditional open surgery, including reduced hospitalization time, quicker recovery, and lower risk for high-risk patients.

Lymphovenous Malformations are conditions in which there is accumulation of body fluid / blood in the tissues leading to abnormal enlargement of the body or its parts. It can cause tissues to become extremely large at any place in the body, however most frequently occurs in the legs. It can be caused due to multiple factors and is mostly treated by normal physicians with compression and reassurance. These conditions can hence foster long term disability.

A Vascular Surgeon determines the cause of these malformations, treats them and ultimately remove the excess tissue causing the recurrent ulcers.

Visit your Vascular and Endovascular Surgeon for any Lymphovenous Disorders.
