Peripheral vascular disease (PVD)
Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) is a gradual and progressive condition of the blood vessels, characterized by constriction or occlusion, predominantly impacting the legs and feet. It may induce pain during ambulation or during rest, and can even lead to gangrene of the toes or foot. Treatment options include medication, balloon angioplasty, stenting, or bypass surgery.
Gangrene
Gangrene represents the advanced state of ischemia in the foot, resulting in tissue necrosis. It is managed with angioplasty or bypass; in certain instances, it may necessitate toectomy or amputation.
Diabetic Foot Sepsis
Diabetic foot sepsis is a grave consequence of diabetes, characterized by the dissemination of a foot infection into the bloodstream, leading to a critical systemic infection termed sepsis. Failure to administer timely treatment may result in gangrene, amputation, or death.
Varicose veins
Varicose veins are dilated, engorged veins that exhibit a twisted and protruding appearance, frequently manifesting in blue or purple hues. If not addressed promptly, they may result in a persistent ulcer and recurrent cellulitis. They may be addressed with radiofrequency ablation (RFA).
Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA)
An abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a dilation of the aorta, the principal blood channel that transports blood from the heart through the abdominal region. Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) are frequently asymptomatic; nonetheless, they may induce pain in the abdomen or back, and upon rupture, can result in life-threatening internal haemorrhage or death.
Vascular lab
There is a contemporary Doppler equipment for imaging arteries and veins, as well as a state-of-the-art hybrid angiographic suite in my vascular laboratory.
