About Vascular Repair

Vascular repair is a surgical procedure performed by vascular surgeons to restore normal blood flow by fixing damaged or diseased blood vessels. This critical intervention addresses conditions like aneurysms, traumatic injuries, arterial blockages, and vessel dissections. Surgeons use advanced techniques, including open surgery or minimally invasive endovascular methods, to reconstruct arteries and veins using grafts, stents, or direct suturing. The primary goal is to prevent life-threatening complications such as rupture, stroke, or limb loss by ensuring adequate circulation to vital organs and tissues. This procedure is tailored to each patient's specific vascular pathology to optimize long-term vascular health and function.

Key Highlights

    Restores normal blood flow to prevent tissue damage or organ failure.Can be performed using minimally invasive (endovascular) techniques for faster recovery.Prevents life-threatening complications like aneurysm rupture or limb amputation.Tailored to the specific vascular issue, such as blockages, injuries, or aneurysms.Utilizes durable materials like grafts and stents for long-lasting results.Helps alleviate symptoms like pain, numbness, and non-healing wounds./ul

Who is this surgery for?

  • Abdominal or thoracic aortic aneurysm (AAA/TAA) at risk of rupture.
  • Peripheral artery disease (PAD) causing severe claudication or critical limb ischemia.
  • Traumatic vascular injury from accidents or penetrating wounds.
  • Carotid artery stenosis to prevent stroke.
  • Arterial dissection or occlusion.
  • Vascular malformations or fistulas.
  • Failed previous vascular interventions requiring revision.
  • Symptomatic aneurysms in other arteries (e.g., popliteal, visceral).

How to prepare

  • Comprehensive vascular imaging (CT angiography, ultrasound, or MRA) to plan the repair.
  • Pre-operative blood tests, ECG, and cardiac evaluation to assess surgical risk.
  • Management of medications; may need to stop blood thinners (e.g., warfarin, clopidogrel) as advised.
  • Lifestyle adjustments like smoking cessation to improve healing.
  • Fasting for 8-12 hours before the procedure if general anesthesia is used.
  • Discussion of anesthesia options (general, regional, or local) with the anesthesiologist.
  • Informed consent process detailing the procedure, risks, and alternatives.

Risks & possible complications

  • Bleeding, hematoma, or infection at the surgical site.
  • Blood clot formation (thrombosis) leading to graft/stent blockage or embolism.
  • Damage to adjacent nerves, organs, or blood vessels.
  • Graft infection, leakage, or failure requiring re-intervention.
  • Contrast-induced kidney injury (for endovascular procedures).
  • Cardiac events like heart attack or arrhythmia, especially in high-risk patients.
  • Limb ischemia or compartment syndrome in peripheral repairs.
  • Allergic reaction to anesthesia, contrast dye, or graft materials.

Recovery & hospital stay

  • Initial hospital stay for monitoring vital signs, incision sites, and circulation.
  • Pain management with prescribed medications; early mobilization to prevent clots.
  • Incision care instructions to keep the area clean and dry, watching for signs of infection.
  • Gradual return to light activities; avoiding heavy lifting or strenuous exercise for several weeks.
  • Regular follow-up visits and imaging (e.g., ultrasound) to monitor graft/stent function.
  • Lifestyle modifications: healthy diet, regular walking, strict smoking cessation, and managing conditions like diabetes/hypertension.
  • Adherence to prescribed medications, such as antiplatelets (e.g., aspirin) or statins.
  • Reporting any new symptoms like pain, swelling, coolness, or discoloration in the limb immediately.
  • checked Typical hospital stay: 3-7 days
  • checked Expected recovery time: 4-8 weeks
