While many people think cardiovascular problems are related to the
heart, cardiovascular problems can also occur in arteries and veins throughout the body, including the
abdomen, kidneys, legs, neck and brain. Since all the blood vessels are
interconnected, a problem in one area may be an indication of a more serious
condition elsewhere. That's why Mount Carmel has vascular surgeons and interventional radiologists who
are dedicated to treating patients with diseases affecting the peripheral
arteries and veins of the circulatory system.
With a wide range of
knowledge and experience, Mount Carmel
vascular surgeons and interventional
radiologists provide expert diagnosis, treatment and care to patients
with circulatory diseases and disorders, including aneurysms and peripheral
vascular disease (sometimes called peripheral artery disease).
With
state-of-the-art peripheral imaging labs at Mount Carmel East, Mount Carmel
West and Mount Carmel St. Ann's, our non-invasive diagnostic facilities put us
at the cutting edge of vascular care. We
also offer traditional (bypass, endarterectomy, and aneurysm repair) and
minimally invasive surgical options (stenting, angioplasty), as well as
treatment of chronic lower extremity ulcers due to thrombosis, phlebitis and
varicose veins. |
