Did you know Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) can be effectively treated with medications and advanced procedures? For most, blood thinners are the go-to, preventing new clots and dissolving existing ones over ~6 months. But for extensive clots (think thigh or pelvis), thrombolysis — a minimally invasive procedure — might be the answer. Combining mechanical devices and specialized drugs, it’s most effective for clots less than 2 weeks old. Early treatment = fewer complications.

If you suspect DVT or have concerns about your vascular health, act now. Early intervention can make all the difference.

Like in a traffic jam, when fatty deposits (plaque) build up in the carotid arteries, narrowing them and restrict blood flow to the brain, you are at significant risk for a stroke.

The disease can progress further when blood clots from the plague, travel to the brain and cause a stroke. Understanding carotid artery disease and stroke is important.

Risk Factors for Carotid Artery Disease include:
(a) Age
(b) High Blood Pressure
(c) High Cholesterol
(d) Diabetes
(e) Smoking
(f) Family History

If you or someone you know is at risk, contact us for help. Our experienced, board-certified vascular surgeons specialize in carotid surgeries, including endarterectomy, stenting, angioplasty, and bypass, to reduce stroke risk by improving blood flow. The procedure choice depends on the patient’s condition, health, and artery blockage severity.

Malformations occur in nature all around us. Just like in plants, vascular malformations also present itself in people.

The most common types of vascular malformations include:

1. Hemangiomas - Benign tumors made up of blood vessels, often appearing as red or purple marks on the skin.

2. Venous Malformations - Abnormal collections of veins that can cause swelling and discomfort, often present at birth.

3. Arteriovenous Malformations (AVMs) - Abnormal connections between arteries and veins, bypassing the capillary system, which can lead to serious complications.

4. Lymphatic Malformations - Congenital lesions involving lymphatic vessels, often causing swelling and sometimes fluid accumulation.

Each type of vascular malformation may require different treatment approaches, including sclerotherapy, laser treatment, embolization therapy or surgical intervention.

FAQ Series: Part 1

Think of your vascular system like a plumbing network: when everything flows smoothly, life runs without a hitch.

But just as a leaky pipe can disrupt water pressure, a venous leak in erectile dysfunction (ED) causes blood to drain too quickly from the p***s, preventing a firm er****on. In a healthy system, veins act like valves, maintaining pressure to sustain blood flow where it’s needed. With venous leak ED, these 'valves' malfunction, leading to frustration and challenges. Understanding this 'plumbing problem' is the first step toward finding the right fix!

Q) I’ve heard that 80% of erectile dysfunction cases are caused by venous leaks. How can I determine if my ED is due to a venous leak?

A) The most reliable way to diagnose a venous leak is through a Pe**le Doppler Ultrasound. This non-invasive test uses sound waves to create detailed images of blood flow in the p***s. Here’s how it works:

• Resting State: Your blood flow is assessed while you’re not aroused.
• Er****on Induction: A medication (such as alprostadil) is administered to stimulate an er****on, allowing the specialist to evaluate blood flow and identify any leakage.

This test helps pinpoint whether a venous leak is the cause of your ED, guiding the next steps toward effective treatment.

At VIC, our vascular surgeons are like specialist plumbers, expertly diagnosing and repairing these leaks to restore proper function. Contact us at +65 6694 6270 to book a consultation with our specialists for proper evaluation and treatment.

13/02/2026

Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a medical condition characterized by the formation of a blood clot (thrombus) in a deep vein, usually in the legs.

Known often as economy class syndrome as it refers to the risk of DVT during long periods of immobility such as long haul flights in economy class seating.

Why Does It Occur During Long Flights?
1. Immobility: Sitting for extended periods reduces blood flow in the legs, increasing the risk of clot formation.
2. Compression: Tight seating arrangements can compress veins, further inhibiting blood flow.
3. Dehydration: The low humidity in airplane cabins can lead to dehydration, which can thicken the blood.
4. Low Cabin Pressure: Changes in pressure can affect circulation.

Prevention Strategies
1. Stay Active: Move around the cabin periodically (at least every hour).
2. Leg Exercises: Perform ankle pumps and calf raises while seated.
3. Wear Compression Stockings: Graduated compression stockings can help improve circulation.
4. Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water during the flight.
5. Avoid Alcohol and Caffeine: These can contribute to dehydration.
