Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a common condition in which a build-up of fatty deposits in the arteries restricts blood supply to leg muscles. It is also known as peripheral vascular disease (PVD).

Arterial hypertension has many causes, which may be innate (the so called ‘essential’ arterial hypertension) as well as acquired causes.

Subclavian arteries (there are two on each side of the neck) are branches of the aorta. Subclavian artery stenosis can be a cause of significant morbidity as it can lead to ischemia (due to insufficient blood supply in the tissues) affecting the upper extremities, brain and in some cases the heart.

Chronic mesenteric ischemia is a rare afection, wich in 95% of cases is caused by difuse atherosclerosis ( fats accumulation in your blood vessels walls, leading to their narrowing wich decrease the flow of blood to the bowel). Disease’ s progression is associated with more striking symptoms. Almost half of patients present simultaneous the affecting of heart’s blood vessels, but also peripheral artery disease.

Thromboembolic disease is caracterized, especially, by clots formation in deep venous system of legs and their migration in the pulmonary arteries.

DIAGNOSTICS + CAROTID ARTERY OPERATIONS: Carotid Endarterectomy (CEA) is a surgical procedure used to remove the atheromatous plaque material or blockage that causes a stenosis (narrowing) in the common or internal carotid artery.
