What does a vascular surgeon do?
The avascular surgeon is a doctor who diagnoses, treats, and controls diseases of the arteries and veins, also known as the blood vessels. Our blood vessels — arteries that carry oxygen-rich blood and veins that return blood to the heart — serve as the roadways of our circulatory system. Your body cannot operate without a steady supply of blood. These experts can help patients manage chronic diseases throughout their lives, treating everything from spider and varicose veins to life-threatening aneurysms. Vascular surgeons manage veins and arteries in every part of the body except the brain and the heart.
What is angioplasty?
Angioplasty is a medical procedure that opens up a blocked or narrowed artery around the heart. It is a standard treatment for narrowed or blocked arteries in this area of the body. In an emergency, such as a heart attack, angioplasty can be done. If your healthcare provider strongly suspects you have heart problems, it can also be done as elective surgery. Angioplasty is also called percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
It’s Types
There are two main types of angioplasty:
- Balloon angioplasty, The process of balloon angioplasty is performed to open narrowed or blocked arteries. It involves inserting a catheter into an artery with a balloon attached to it. The balloon is inflated at the site where plaque deposits have blocked off or restricted the blood flow route.
- Stent placement in the artery, Coronary stents are now used in nearly all angioplasty procedures. A stent is a tiny, expandable metal mesh coil, A stent is a small metal mesh coil that may expand. It is inserted into the newly opened artery to prevent the artery from narrowing or shutting again. The tissue will begin to cover the stent-like layer of skin once it has been inserted. Depending on whether the stent has a medication coating or not, the stent will be entirely coated with tissue in 3 to 12 months.
Angioplasty and stenting usually have a quick recovery time. The catheter is generally removed 12 to 24 hours after the patient is discharged from the hospital. After a procedure, many patients can return to work within a few days to a week.
