The elimination of aneurysms and vascular malformations is a minimally invasive procedure in which pathologically altered blood vessels are treated to reduce the risk of ruptures or bleeding. In the elimination of aneurysms, a stent or vascular prosthesis is often used to exclude the aneurysm from the blood circulation and stabilize the vessel wall. Vascular malformations, such as arteriovenous malformations, are treated by embolization, in which special substances or micro coils are introduced into the affected vessels to stop the abnormal blood flow.

The elimination of aneurysms is a minimally invasive procedure in which a stent or vascular prosthesis is used to exclude the aneurysm from the blood circulation and stabilize the vessel wall, thereby reducing the risk of rupture.
Vascular malformations are abnormal connections between arteries and veins, such as arteriovenous malformations. They are treated by embolization, where special substances or micro coils are introduced into the affected vessels to stop the abnormal blood flow.
In the elimination of aneurysms, a catheter is guided through the blood vessels to the aneurysm, where a stent or vascular prosthesis is placed. In the treatment of vascular malformations, a catheter is guided to the affected vessels, and embolization materials are used to block the malformation.
As with any medical procedure, there are risks, including bleeding, infection, vascular injury, and reactions to the materials used. Your doctor will discuss the specific risks and benefits of the procedures with you.
The recovery time after these minimally invasive procedures is usually short. Patients can often resume their normal activities within a few days but must carefully follow the doctor’s instructions for aftercare to ensure a quick recovery and avoid complications.
We offer a variety of other tests to get a comprehensive picture of your cardiovascular health. These examinations help us to create individual treatment plans and optimally promote your heart health.
