Dr. Christopher Leville, MD, and the entire vascular surgery team completed the percutaneous transmural arterial bypass using the Detour system by Endologix.
The Detour system treats complex peripheral arterial disease by narrowing the superficial femoral and popliteal arteries of the legs due to plaque build-up. The system allows a physician to use a person’s own blood vessels to redirect blood around a blockage and increase blood flow to the leg. It is a minimally invasive procedure for patients who are not candidates for traditional stents or open heart surgery.
At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
