Vascular Surgery

Vascular disease is the general term for a variety of problems affecting the blood flow through the body's blood vessels. The causes of arterial diseases or problems are wide-ranging, but most vascular diseases are the result of atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries). Other causes include congenital malformation, trauma, and diseases of the arteries.
