Make a Gift
A gift to the Division of Vascular & Endovascular Surgery helps support research to treat serious conditions such as PAD, aneurysms, and carotid artery disease.
Patient Stories
UCSF vascular surgeons confirmed Virginia Madden had a blocked carotid artery that put her at great risk of having a stroke. |
The Division of Vascular & Endovascular Surgery provides compassionate, state-of-the-art care for patients across the full range of vascular disorders including Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD), aneurysms, carotid artery disease, hemodialysis access and venous disease. The program also treats less-common disorders including complex thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms (involving the upper abdomen and chest) arterial graft infections, arterial blockage to the kidneys or intestines and thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS).
Division faculty have achieved national and international recognition as leaders in clinical innovation, surgical education, and research. The program is closely integrated with several specialized centers including the UCSF Heart & Vascular Center, a multidisciplinary team of vascular surgeons and cardiovascular specialists.
