Vascular surgery

Vascular surgery prevents and treats pathologies of the blood vessels, such as circulatory insufficiency, aneurysms and thrombosis.

At Hôpital Privé Sud Corse, our specialist uses his expertise and the most advanced techniques to provide safe, personalised care.

✔ Arterial diseases :
Treatment of arterial stenosis due to atherosclerosis (leg arteries, carotid arteries, aorta).
Bypass surgery and angioplasty to restore blood flow.
Surgery on abdominal or thoracic aortic aneurysms.

✔ Venous diseases :
Management of varicose veins and chronic venous insufficiency.
Treatment of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism.
Vascular access for dialysis: creation of arteriovenous fistulas for patients with kidney failure.

This speciality uses both open and minimally invasive endovascular techniques. Minimally invasive endovascular techniques use interventional techniques performed from inside the vessels. It is based on the use of catheters, stents and balloons introduced via percutaneous puncture (often in the femoral or radial artery), thus avoiding open surgery.
