Vascular Surgery

Vascular surgery is a medical specialty focused on the diagnosis and treatment of diseases affecting the blood vessels (arteries and veins). Vascular diseases can develop without obvious symptoms, but early diagnosis helps prevent more serious complications.

Patients most commonly consult a vascular surgeon for:

  • varicose veins,
  • circulatory disorders,
  • thrombosis,
  • leg pain,
  • or wounds that heal poorly.

Modern treatment includes prevention, diagnostic examinations, minimally invasive procedures, and surgical treatment.

When Should You See a Vascular Surgeon?

  • You experience leg pain while walking that disappears with rest. This may indicate narrowing of the arteries, known as intermittent claudication.
  • You experience tiredness or a feeling of heaviness in your legs.
  • You are bothered by cold or pale legs or arms, or experience numbness and tingling in your limbs.
  • You have visible bluish varicose veins or leg swelling, especially toward the end of the day.
  • You have skin changes on your legs, such as brownish discoloration or ulcers.
  • You develop sudden severe pain and swelling in one leg, which may indicate a blood clot and requires urgent medical attention.
  • You notice a pulsating lump in your abdomen or groin, which may indicate an aneurysm.

Recommendation: Consult a vascular surgeon if you experience pain, swelling, visible veins, or circulation problems, especially if symptoms persist or worsen.

Sclerotherapy

Sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive technique for treating varicose and spider veins. During the procedure, a safe sclerosing solution is injected into the affected vein, causing the vein walls to stick together and the vein to close.

Contact us if

  • You would like to get rid of small, bothersome veins.

Important information

  • The procedure is virtually painless, as very fine needles are used.
  • Depending on the size of the treated veins, results become visible over a period of several weeks to up to three months.
  • Sclerotherapy is a short outpatient procedure, and recovery is quick.
  • If shaving the treatment area is required before the procedure, you will be informed in advance.

Ultrasound examination of blood vessels (arteries and veins)

Vascular ultrasound is a diagnostic imaging examination that evaluates the condition of arteries and veins, blood flow, and the presence of narrowing, blockages, or blood clots.Why is a vascular ultrasound needed?

The examination helps to:

  • Identify the causes of leg swelling, pain, or a sensation of coldness.
  • Detect varicose veins or deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
  • Assess narrowing or blockage of arteries or veins.
  • Monitor the condition of blood vessels after surgery or treatment.
