Vascular Procedures Offered:

Angiogram and Arteriogram

These vascular imaging tests allow our Lakeland vascular specialists to assess blood flow through the arteries and check for blockages. In some cases, treatments may be performed during one of these tests.

Many vascular procedures may be performed at our outpatient surgery center— at less cost to the patient and, in the era of COVID-19, at potentially less risk. When you consult with us, ask if your procedure can be performed at Lakeland Vascular Institute’s Outpatient Center.

Angioplasty and Vascular Stenting

Angioplasty at the Lakeland Vascular Institute uses a balloon-tipped catheter to open a blocked blood vessel. Sometimes, the placement of a mesh tube inside the artery is required to keep the artery open and to maintain sufficient blood flow.

Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair

To repair aneurysms within the abdominal aorta, the board-certified interventional radiologists at Lakeland Vascular Institute perform two procedures: endovascular grafting with stent placement and traditional open surgical repair.

Femoral and Carotid Endarterectomy

Femoral Endarterectomy and Carotid Endarterectomy are surgical procedures at our Lakeland Vascular Institute that remove plaque build-up within the femoral or carotid arteries. Carotid Endarterectomy is also used for patients who may have had a mild stroke. Schedule a consultation at LVI to learn more about your options.

Bypass Surgery for Vascular Disease (Limb Salvage)

A procedure to reroute blood around a blocked artery using a graft, commonly performed to restore blood flow to the lower legs and feet. The board-certified interventional radiologists at Lakeland Vascular Institute use autologous veins whenever possible, as well as synthetic grafts.

Carotid Body Tumor Surgery

At Lakeland Vascular Institute, we offer Carotid Body Tumor Surgery which is the surgical removal of a tumor located inside the carotid artery in the neck. This surgery may be preceded by a transcatheter embolization procedure to cut off the blood supply to the tumor.

Embolization

Embolization at Lakeland Vascular Institute in Lakeland, Florida is a minimally invasive procedure to seal off a vessel to prevent blood from flowing to a targeted area within the body.

Endovascular Treatment

Performed inside the blood vessel, endovascular treatments are minimally invasive procedures to treat peripheral artery disease.

Hybrid Procedures for Vascular Blockage

Combines traditional open surgery with endovascular therapy to repair vessels or place stents, when an endovascular procedure by itself is not possible for the patient.

Intravascular Ultrasound

A diagnostic test that uses sound waves to generate images of the interior of blood vessels.

Limb Amputation Prevention

Lakeland Vascular Institute offers timely and efficient vascular outpatient treatment for patients at risk for lower extremity amputation. In fact, we may be able to save your leg even if you’ve been told you need an amputation. Learn more about limb amputation prevention here »

Mesenteric Bypass Surgery

Creates an alternate route for blood flow from the aorta to the artery that supplies blood to the intestines.

Mesenteric Bypass Surgery

Creates an alternate route for blood flow from the aorta to the artery that supplies blood to the intestines.

Varicose Vein Treatment

If varicose veins are more severe, or if they are causing skin ulcers, treatments to remove the vein may be required. In most cases however, a minimally invasive procedure known as endovascular laser vein therapy can be used to treat varicose veins.

Vascular Access and Maintenance for Dialysis

Includes the creation of a fistula for patients undergoing hemodialysis, as well as maintenance of fistula for long-term viability.
