Open Vascular Surgery
Decades of research with proven results
Overview
Open vascular surgery treats many vascular conditions, though minimally invasive methods are preferred when possible. It involves a larger incision to directly access the affected artery or vein, usually under general anesthesia, though local anesthesia or sedation may be used in some cases.

Recovery
Recovery time for open vascular surgery tends to range from a couple weeks to a few months, largely depending on the complexity of the procedure. A general timeline for recovery would be that the patient stays in the hospital for a few days after the surgery, then being discharged to recover at home. During home recovery, the patient should avoid lifting heavy objects (those 10 lbs. or more) and will often have restrictions that stops them from operating heavy machinery.
