The Department of Vascular & Endovascular Surgery at SIMS Hospital offers comprehensive care for diseases of the arterial, venous, and lymphatic systems. The department combines medical management, advanced minimally invasive endovascular techniques, and open surgical reconstruction to deliver optimal outcomes.
Vascular surgery focuses on treating diseases of arteries and veins, while endovascular surgery is a rapidly advancing field where surgeons treat blockages, aneurysms, and vascular disorders through needle punctures and catheter-based techniques. These approaches help restore blood flow, prevent aneurysm rupture, and reduce recovery time for patients.
