Vascular Surgeries: Embolectomies, AV fistula, vascular bypass operations
Vascular surgery is the specialized field of medicine that focuses on the surgical management of the pathologies of the peripheral circulation . The main goal of most vascular procedures is to restore circulatory function to the affected vessels by relieving occlusions or by redirecting blood flow (e.g., bypass). Surgical intervention is either open or endovascular. Vascular interventions require a multidisciplinary approach, including vascular surgeons, interventional radiologists, anesthesiologists (or anesthetists), nurses, physiotherapists, and occupational therapists.
