Vascular Surgery

Vascular surgery deals with issues concerning blood circulation in the body’s arteries, veins, and lymphatic vessels. The surgeons specialize in treating various conditions such as aneurysms (weakened and enlarged blood vessels). It is also treats peripheral artery disease (narrowing of arteries in the limbs), varicose veins (twisted and swollen veins), and blood clots.

Additionally, they rely on diagnostic tools like ultrasound and angiography to identify and understand these conditions better. These specialists play a crucial role in helping patients manage and treat vascular disorders, ensuring better overall health and well-being.

Treatment options for vascular disease may include lifestyle changes, medication, minimally invasive procedures such as angioplasty or stenting, and surgery.
Diagnosis of vascular disease may involve a physical examination, medical history review, and diagnostic tests such as ultrasound, CT scan, MRI, or angiography.

Peripheral artery disease limited my mobility and quality of life. Dr. Adil Rizvi from Fortis Escorts Heart Institute suggested bypass surgery, and it was the right choice. The procedure was successful, and the improvement in blood flow is remarkable. I can now walk without pain, and I'm grateful to Dr. Adil Rizvi for giving me back my independence.
