Vascular Surgery in Minnesota

Overview

Specialists in vascular surgery at Mayo Clinic in Rochester offer state-of-the-art diagnosis and comprehensive treatment of diseases of the circulatory system (arteries, veins and lymphatics). Working closely with other specialists in the Gonda Vascular Center, Mayo Clinic vascular surgeons are experienced in caring for patients with common vascular diseases, complex illnesses and rare arterial, venous or lymphatic problems.

Mayo Clinic vascular surgeons are leaders in open vascular surgery, including repair of aortic aneurysms, carotid, renal and mesenteric artery reconstructions and bypass surgery for peripheral vascular disease (PVD) and gangrene of the limbs. They develop and use new, minimally invasive endovascular procedures that produce excellent outcomes and rapid recovery, including endovascular aortic aneurysm repair with stent grafts and carotid artery angioplasty and stenting.

Vascular surgeons also perform angioplasty and stenting in all vascular territories (renal, mesenteric, iliac, lower extremity, and brachiocephalic). They work in the integrated Vein Clinic that offers the latest treatments of varicose veins and venous ulcers using endovenous laser therapy (EVLT), subfascial endoscopic perforator surgery (SEPS), and endovascular and open reconstruction of deep veins. They have special experience in the management of thoracic outlet syndrome, vascular malformations and lymphedema.

With nationally and internationally recognized expertise in traditional open surgery, minimally-invasive endovascular and endoscopic procedures, Mayo Clinic vascular surgeons are eminently qualified to tailor treatment to each patient.
