Vascular Surgery
Vascular surgery in Germany is considered one of the leading medical fields.
As the old saying goes, “A man is as old as his blood vessels”. Not surprisingly, the process of human aging is accompanied by an increase in the number of cardiovascular diseases. However, they can also occur in younger people.
A typical manifestation of this kind of diseases are disorders of the blood circulation as a result of narrowing of the arteries. Such mulfunctions occur most often in the legs, but not less frequently the disease affects the so-called central vessels carrying blood supply to the head and brain. Through the inspection of vessels it is possible to find out whether there is a need and a possibility of surgery to remove the blockage of blood vessels.
