Procedures

Atlanta Vascular and Vein Center offers multiple treatment and surgical procedures for people suffering from vascular diseases that affect the arteries and veins. Procedures range from medical therapy to minimally-invasive catheter placement and surgical reconstruction.

Arterial disease is a condition in which blood clots, arteriosclerosis, and other vascular conditions occur in the arteries. Venous disease involves problems that occur in the veins. Some vascular conditions occur only in arteries, others occur only in the veins, and some affect both veins and arteries.

Vascular diseases are usually caused by conditions that clog or weaken blood vessels, or damage valves that control the flow of blood in and out of the veins, thus robbing them of vital blood nutrients and oxygen. Surgery is used to treat specific diseased arteries to help prevent strokes or heart attacks, improve or relieve angina or hypertension, remove aneurysms, improve claudication, and save legs that would otherwise have to be amputated. The choices involve repairing the artery, bypassing it, or replacing it.
