Peripheral Vascular Diseases Department

This center has found a fully equipped and highly specialized ward focusing on peripheral vascular diseases, which led to the dedication of outpatient clinics, noninvasive laboratories, and separate cath-lab rooms alongside trained interventionists to peripheral endovascular procedures.

The department is widely acknowledged as a trailblazing peripheral endovascular treatment center in the country on the strength of the excellent services it provides to a growing number of referral patients from cardiovascular clinics and other hospitals.

Aortoiliac and femoropopliteal occlusive diseases, critical limb ischemia, aortic aneurysmal disorders, acute and chronic venous obstruction, and even varicose veins are among the most notable fields currently managed in our center. As a pioneering center in Iran, our short-term program is to train highly-qualified endovascular fellows.

Research has always been a high priority in this group. Several ongoing registries such as pulmonary emboli (PE), Type B dissection and randomized controlled trials consist of Catheter directed thrombolysis in PE and endovascular treatment in aortic coarctation are among the most important investigational activities.
