When Traditional, Open Vascular Surgery is the Best Treatment

Endovascular procedures have been a tremendous innovation, allowing surgeons to repair many conditions without large incisions. Instead, the surgeons use the body’s blood vessels as a superhighway to reach problem areas with a catheter. However, that approach is not appropriate for everyone, and in some cases open surgery still offers the most effective treatment. Patients should evaluate the implications of all their surgical options by asking questions about alternatives related to their diagnosis. And, when open surgery is the best answer, it’s important to select a hospital with a comprehensive, multidisciplinary program that takes a “team” approach to patient care. It should also have highly experienced surgeons who are well-versed in dealing with every scenario.
