Peripheral Arterial Disease

Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) is a condition where the arteries become narrowed or blocked (occluded) by a build-up of plaque of fatty deposits called atherosclerosis.

Aneurysm Disease

An artery is a blood vessel that carries oxygen-rich blood from your heart to all the parts of the body. An aneurysm is a condition where the walls of the artery weaken causing swelling of the artery. This ballooning may increase in size and finally burst leading to haemorrhage (bleeding).

Carotid Artery Disease

Carotid arteries are a pair of large blood vessels present on either side of the neck that supply blood to the brain. When these arteries get blocked, it leads to a condition known as carotid artery disease.

Chronic Ulcers

These are wounds, usually on the legs, feet and toes, that take a long time to heal.
These can develop for numerous reasons. At Sydney Vascular Surgery we offer solutions when the cause is due to compromised venous and/or arterial supply and we provide a vascular surgeon service to the Lady Davidson Wound Clinic where the expert team of wound nurses manage chronic ulcers of all kinds.

Deep Vein Thrombosis

The condition in which a blood clot forms in the deep veins of the body is referred to as Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT). Clots form when blood thickens and clumps together.

Varicose Veins

Varicose veins are swollen, bulging and twisted blue veins which are mainly caused due to high blood pressure inside your veins.

Thoracic Outlet Syndrome

The thoracic outlet is a small passageway leading from the base of the neck to the armpit and arm. This small area contains many blood vessels, nerves and muscles.

Renal Mesenteric Intervention

Renal Messenteric disease is a condition caused due to hardening of renal arteries. Normally, your arteries are smooth and unobstructed on the inside but a sticky substance called ‘plaque’ builds up in the artery walls because of dyslipidemia or presence of both diabetes and hypertension.

Renal Transplant and Vascular Access

A renal or kidney transplant is a procedure in which a healthy kidney is transplanted into your body to treat kidney failure. The procedure involves precisely suturing the blood vessels of the donor kidney to the recipient’s blood supply.
