Vascular Disease

Peripheral Artery Disease
(PAD)

Peripheral Arterial Disease occurs when plaque builds up in the arteries that supply blood to your extremities, narrowing them and reducing the flow of blood. This process is known as atherosclerosis, or “hardening of the arteries.”

Critical Limb Ischemia

Critical limb ischemia (CLI) occurs when blood flow through an artery of the lower extremities becomes severely blocked. CLI is a painful condition that causes extreme discomfort in the feet and toes, even while at rest.

Limb Salvage & Amputation Prevention

The development of minimally-invasive revascularization procedures provides an alternative to amputation- and an improved quality of life for patients suffering from CLI.

Wound Care

Infinity Vascular Institute offers treatments for amputation causing wounds including Diabetic Foot Ulcers, Arterial Wounds, & Venous Leg Ulcers

Venous Disease

Venous Insufficiency

Normally, the valves in your veins work in a “one way” direction as blood flows toward your heart. When these valves don’t work well, blood can also flow backward. This can cause blood to collect (pool) in your legs. If untreated, debilitating symptoms can occur such as pain, cramps, swelling, skin changes, varicose veins, and leg ulcers.

May-Thurner Syndrome
(Iliac Vein Compression Syndrome)

May-Thurner syndrome can cause significant lower extremity swelling and venous insufficiency. Symptoms range from swelling and edema, significant varicose veins, to leg heaviness.

Superior Vena Cava Syndrome
(SVC Syndrome)

The Superior Vena Cava (SVC) is a large vein that returns blood to the heart and lungs from the head and arms. SVC Syndrome is a condition where the SVC is narrowed causing increased pressure in the head and arms.

Deep Vein Thrombosis
(DVT)

Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) occurs when blood moves too slowly through your veins, and a blood clot is formed. Typically, in a healthy vein, the pressure from vein walls creates a compression to help push the blood through the vein. In a damaged vein, venous disease causes the blood to pool and expands the veins, causing blood to flow slower.

Women's Health

Uterine Fibroids

Uterine fibroids are smooth, muscular non-cancerous growths that form in the uterus. They can range in size from tiny to larger than a golf ball. It is estimated that over 30% of women develop them by age 35, and increases with age. Uterine fibroids have been known to cause no problems, and oftentimes go undetected.

Pelvic Congestive Syndrome
(PCS)

Pelvic Congestive Syndroms is a chronic condition which occurs in women when varicose veins form within the pelvic region. Varicose veins are veins that become swollen, twisted and elongated as a result of faulty vein valves.

Men's Health

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
(BPH)

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) — also called prostate gland enlargement — is a common condition as men get older. An enlarged prostate gland can cause uncomfortable urinary symptoms, such as blocking the flow of urine out of the bladder.

Varicocele

A varicocele is an enlargement of the veins in the scrotum. A varicocele occurs when blood pools in the veins rather than circulating efficiently out of the scrotum.

Vascular Access

Venous Access Ports

An access port is a device used to draw blood and give treatments, including intravenous fluids, blood transfusions, or drugs such as chemotherapy and antibiotics. It is attached to a catheter (a thin, flexible tube) that is guided (threaded) into a large vein above the right side of the heart called the superior vena cava.

Arteriovenous Fistula

An AV fistula is a connection, made by a vascular specialist, of an artery to a vein. Arteries carry blood from the heart to the body, while veins carry blood from the body back to the heart. An AV fistula creates extra pressure and extra blood to flow into the vein.

Arteriovenous Graft

An AV graft is a small plastic tube that connects an artery to a vein, in a similar fashion to an AV fistula.
