Vascular Conditions We Treat
At Ellis Medicine, board-certified vascular surgeons will oversee your care. Below is an overview of the most common conditions we treat, as well as the surgical techniques we offer:
Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD)
Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) is a common circulatory program in which narrowed arteries reduce blood flow to your limbs.
- Angioplasty
- Stent placement
- Clot-removal treatment
- Traditional surgery
Carotid Artery Disease
Carotid artery disease occurs when fatty deposits, or plaques, clog the blood vessels that deliver blood to your brain and head (carotid arteries). The blockage increases your risk of stroke. Treatment options include:
- Carotid artery stenting (CAS)
- Carotid endarterectomy (CEA)
Aneurysm
Aneurysms are a weakening of an artery wall. Although an aneurysm can occur anywhere in the body, they usually occur in the thoracic (chest) or abdominal (belly) aorta, the main blood vessel in the body. We offer testing as well as:
- Endovascular repair
- Open surgical repair
Venous Disease
Venous disease, commonly known as varicose veins, most often occurs when the valves in the veins fail, causing blood to move inefficiently through the body.
Testing options include:
- Venous ultrasound
- Venogram
- Intra-vascular ultrasound
Medical treatment:
- Ablation
- Sclerotherapy
- Microphlebectomy
- Stenting of the deep veins
- Traditional surgery
