Vascular surgery cases are distributed among the vascular fellows and the senior general surgery residents rotating on the vascular teaching service.
The caseload includes:
- Extracranial cerebrovascular reconstruction
- Aortic reconstructive procedures
- Renal and mesenteric reconstructive procedures
- Lower extremity revascularization
- Endovascular procedures
The program also provides exposure to hemodialysis access procedures, sympathectomy, thoracic outlet decompressive procedures and vena caval interruption.
The primary emphasis of the teaching program is hands-on clinical training. Fellows also have access to a simulation and cadaver lab.
