What is Vascular Surgery?
Vascular surgery is a medical specialty that focuses on treating diseases and conditions of the blood vessels, primarily the arteries and veins outside of the heart and brain. It includes both open surgeries and minimally invasive procedures to restore proper blood flow and prevent serious complications.
At Rajan Hospital, our experienced vascular surgeons in Madurai are trained to diagnose, manage, and treat a wide range of vascular conditions, helping patients regain a healthier and more active life.
