Choose the San Diego cardiac provider who's right for you.
At Sharp, our doctors are pioneers in the field of innovative endovascular treatments. For more than 30 years, our team of experts has performed complex, minimally invasive procedures to treat aneurysms, or enlarged arteries caused by weakening of the artery wall.
Our team of endovascular experts will assess your aneurysm and first determine if it can be treated with medication to lower blood pressure and relax blood vessels.
If the aneurysm is at high risk of rupturing, our skilled doctors will perform the minimally invasive surgery best for you.
Doctors at Sharp offer a newer approach, called an endovascular repair, in which a graft is inserted and fastened to the weakened artery through a small incision in the upper thigh. With this method, you will experience a quicker recovery and less scarring.
At Sharp, we make every effort to ensure that you have a quick and comfortable recovery. Sharp Chula Vista Medical Center, Sharp Grossmont Hospital and Sharp Memorial Hospital offer an innovative procedure called fenestrated stent graft surgery to repair abdominal aortic aneurysms. This less invasive approach allows you to return to your life as soon as possible — recovery time is typically one week, compared to three or more months after undergoing open surgery.
Our experienced surgeons are skilled in both cutting-edge and conventional treatments. They have performed countless open-surgery procedures, in which the chest or abdominal cavity is opened and the damaged section of the blood vessel is replaced with a graft.
