Aortic Disease

Definition

Vascular disease affecting the main artery that carries blood from the heart to the entire body. Disease of this artery can be blockages (plaque), aneurysms (ballooning), traumatic injury, or dissections (tears). Aortic disease can cause damage to organs, extremities, disability, and death.

Ballooning of the aorta in the chest.  Once it reaches a certain size threshold repair is recommended to prevent rupture.

Testimonials

The Patient Experienceere

Dr. Robbins looked at my imaging and made an appointment that same day for me to come in. At Vascular Tyler, it’s just like a family environment every time I come in here. If I have to go the doctor’s (office), this is where I want to go.

L.Cunningham Patient

We don’t want to spend a whole lot of time with rehabilitation or in some sort of medical facility, so it was great discovering that there’s only little or no downtime. It was a matter of hours instead of days or weeks.

B. Finch Patient

I had excruciating pain and was told I needed a knee replacement. But Dr. Robbins said I just need vascular surgery. They gave me relief from my pain, and they’re kind and interested in you as a patient and a person. This is the place to come.
