Overview of Vascular Surgery: Techniques and Treatments for Carotid Artery, Aortic, and May-Thurner Syndrome Conditions
Received Date: Jul 01, 2024 / Published Date: Jul 30, 2024
Abstract
Vascular surgery is a specialized field focused on the surgical management and treatment of diseases affecting the vascular system, including arteries, veins, and lymphatic vessels. This branch of surgery encompasses a range of procedures aimed at addressing conditions such as carotid artery disease, aortic aneurysms, and May-Thurner syndrome. Carotid artery surgery is performed to prevent stroke by correcting stenosis or blockages in the carotid arteries. Aortic surgery addresses issues such as aneurysms and dissections within the aorta, aiming to restore normal blood flow and prevent life-threatening complications. May-Thurner syndrome, characterized by the compression of the left iliac vein by the right iliac artery, may require surgical intervention to alleviate venous obstruction and improve blood flow. Vascular surgery incorporates both open surgical techniques and minimally invasive catheter-based procedures, including endovascular stenting and angioplasty. This abstract provides an overview of the surgical approaches and therapeutic strategies employed in the management of vascular diseases, highlighting the importance of precise surgical reconstruction and intervention in improving patient outcomes.
