Endovascular surgery

Main article: Surgery

The main and distinctive feature of endovascular surgery from other areas of medicine is that all interventions are performed without a scalpel, without large incisions, without general anesthesia. This makes it possible to perform interventions in those patients who are contraindicated by traditional surgical treatment.

The process of endovascular removal of blood clots (in the video below) is mesmerizing.

During the intervention, under local anesthesia, a low-traumatic 2-millimeter skin puncture in diameter in the area of ​ ​ the hand or groin is performed. Then, a thin instrument with a diameter of 2 mm is installed in the artery and then all surgical interventions are monitored using safe X-rays, all manipulations inside the vessel are displayed on the screen of special equipment - an angiograph.

After the intervention, there is no postoperative wound and sutures. Most diagnostic studies can be performed on an outpatient basis, saving time and finances. After surgery, patients can be discharged from the hospital after 1-3 days and return to their usual lifestyle.
