Endovascular techniques

Endovascular techniques are minimally invasive medical procedures used to treat conditions affecting blood vessels, such as aneurysms or blockages. Instead of large incisions, doctors access the blood vessels through small punctures, often in the groin. They use thin tubes called catheters to navigate through the vascular system and deliver treatments, such as stents or coils, directly to the affected area. This approach typically results in shorter recovery times, less pain, and lower risk of complications compared to traditional open surgeries, making it a preferred option for many vascular issues.
