About Vascular and Endovascular Surgery

What is Vascular and Endovascular Surgery?

Vascular surgery refers to procedures performed to help treat diseases of the vascular system which mainly focuses on proper blood flow and circulation. A vascular surgeon is able to treat all conditions related to his/her respective field, even if no surgery is required, from medical therapy and open surgery to minimally invasive endovascular surgery.

Endovascular surgery is the use of minimally invasive techniques to treat patients with vascular diseases. With endovascular surgery comes numerous benefits including a decrease in complications, quicker recovery, smaller incisions and more.

Drug discovery and drug development are complex and expensive endeavors undertaken by pharmaceutical companies, academic scientists, and governments. As a result of this complex path from discovery to commercialization, partnering has become a standard practice for advancing drug candidates through development pipelines. Governments generally regulate what drugs can be marketed, how drugs are marketed, and in some jurisdictions,

Although pulmonary medicine only began to evolve as a medical specialty in the 1950s, William Welch and William Osler founded the ‘parent’ organization of the American Thoracic Society

Originally, it was thought that blood reaching the right side of the heart passed through small ‘pores’ in the septum into the left side to be oxygenated, as theorized by Galen; however, the discovery of pulmonary circulation disproves this theory, which had previously been accepted since the 2nd century. Thirteenth century anatomist and physiologist Ibn Al-Nafis accurately theorized that there was no ‘direct’ passage between the two sides.
