We have officially ushered in the Aortic Club of Sacramento with our first inaugural meeting at UC Davis Health! We had surgeons as far north as Redding and as far east as Reno in attendance.

This quarterly event gives vascular and cardiac surgeons in the area, the opportunity to connect and discuss various topics with the latest data in their specialty. This week's session was on Type 1A Endoleak Management.

Our next meeting is tentatively scheduled for August 5, 2025 at UCDH.

With PTAB, we are able to offer our patients with complex forms of PAD, a minimally invasive treatment option that is clinically proven and effective.

Vascular surgeons completed their first percutaneous transmural arterial bypass therapy using the DETOUR System, becoming the first in Sacramento to perform this minimally invasive treatment.

Excited to celebrate this milestone and the great work our team is doing for patients with carotid artery disease!

Excited to celebrate this milestone and the great work our team is doing for patients with carotid artery disease!

We're proud to be the first hospital in the Sacramento region to perform 200 transcarotid artery revascularization (TCAR) procedures!

TCAR is a minimally invasive option that clears plaque and helps prevent patients from having a stroke.

“We are proud to offer this minimally invasive procedure as part of our commitment to improving patient outcomes and streamlining care at UC Davis Health. Our vascular surgery team is among the best and most comprehensive in the nation. Our mission of providing complete, efficient and high-quality care to the patients we care for drives us to lead the field," said Misty D. Humphries, the UC Davis Health interim chief of vascular surgery.
