Vascular conditions affect the veins and arteries (blood vessels) that make up your circulatory system. Problems happen when a condition disrupts how blood oxygen moves through your body.You might feel symptoms such as pain, swelling or shortness of breath, although some vascular disorders have no symptoms at all.

Vascular and endovascular surgeons diagnose and treat conditions that affect the veins and arteries outside your heart and brain. Many vascular problems can be treated without surgery. Others may require endovascular surgery, which involve tiny tubes(catheters) inserted through a blood vessel in the leg or neck using tiny incisions(cuts).

At PeaceHealth, your care team will develop a treatment plan that’s right for you.
