CVTS Department

Introduction:

The department of CVTS has been progressing steadily since its inception catering to patients with a wide spectrum of cardiothoracic and vascular diseases. We have successfully started Open Heart Surgery, Off Pump Coronary Artery Bypass surgery, Minimally Invasive Direct Coronary Artery Bypass surgery, Extra Corporeal Membrane Oxygenation, Video-assisted Thoracic surgery, Laser Ablation of Varicose Veins and Venous Malformations, Open Thoracic and Vascular procedures, Emergency Vascular Repair in trauma patients and diagnostic procedures like Transthoracic & Transoesophageal Echocardiography, Arterial and Venous Doppler examination, Bronchoscopy etc.

Siemens Axiom Zee Cath Lab was established in our department. We have conducted workshops for establishing Coronary Angiography and Angioplasty programme at Cath Lab. We have established Peripheral Endovascular Intervention Programme at U.P.U.M.S., Saifai.

Our department is well established as a high flow Endovascular Surgery center which is progressing at a phenomenal pace; we have already carved a niche on the national front in the quality and quantity of peripheral vascular intervention work being done.

We have done in depth work in the field of below-the-knee and below-the-ankle endovascular revascularization, developed and mastered many innovative techniques and salvaged many critically ischemic limbs. The excellent outcomes of these procedures being performed at our university, presented at prestigious national conferences, have been acclaimed by national and international experts in the field.

Our Endovascular work has projected Department of CVTS, UPUMS, Saifai as the leading vascular centre in the state and we have now become a referral centre for patients requiring Complex Endovascular Interventions in the state as well as neighbouring states. We are routinely performing endovascular interventions like:

  • Aorto-Iliac Endovascular Revascularisation
  • Femoro-Popliteal Endovascular Revascularisation
  • Aortic Arch Vessels Endovascular Revascularisation
  • Superficial Femoral Artery Endovascular Revascularisation by Popliteal Artery Retrograde approach ↓ Doppler guidance
  • Below the knee (BTK) Endovascular Revascularisation including pedal plantar loop technique for Critical Limb Ischemia
  • Upper Limb Endovascular Revascularisation including radial to ulnar artery loop technique in Critical Hand Ischemia
  • Percutaneous Transluminal Venoplasty (PTV) in Central and Peripheral Venous Obstructions
  • Bronchial Artery Angiography and Endovascular Embolization with pushable Micro coils & PVA particles
  • Arterio-venous Malformation Endovascular coil embolization
  • Transcutaneous Glue embolization of Venous Malformation with n-BCA Glue
  • AV Fistula Endovascular Salvage
  • Endovascular management of Pseudoaneurysm
  • Hybrid Vascular Revascularisation using open and endovascular techniques
  • Endovascular management of vascular trauma
  • Digital Subtraction Angiography/ Arteriography
  • Central and Peripheral Venography

Our department has integrated successfully with the existing emergency and trauma healthcare system providing thoracic and vascular support and is complimenting the existing departmental framework by extending interdepartmental cooperation and providing timely and valuable inputs for the multi-disciplinary management of medical, surgical, emergency and trauma, orthopaedic, chest and T.B. and paediatric patients.
