Division of Vascular Surgery

The Division of Vascular Surgery at UPMC offers comprehensive arterial, endovascular, and venous care by a team of vascular experts. These professionals work together in the study, development, and implementation of new procedures and devices to deliver advanced, comprehensive vascular care. In recent years, our clinical services have shown a dramatic increase in activity, volume, and complexity, and our facilities have become premier centers for treatment and research in the vascular field.

Our division delivers high-quality patient care and provides consultation services, both outpatient and inpatient endovascular interventions, as well as surgical procedures for the full range of vascular-related diseases and conditions, including aortic disease, aneurysms, varicose veins, circulatory disorders, cerebrovascular disease, thoracic outlet syndrome, venous disease, and visceral vascular problems. Our surgeons specialize in minimally invasive procedures, which many of our own faculty helped to pioneer for the treatment of the entire vascular system.
