Hyderabad · Vascular & Endovascular Care

Endovascular Surgery Specialist in Hyderabad

Endovascular surgery treats blood vessel disease from inside the artery or vein — through pinhole punctures rather than long cuts. Dr. Pritee Sharma is among Hyderabad's most experienced endovascular surgeons, performing the full spectrum: peripheral angioplasty, aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR/TEVAR), carotid stenting, venous interventions and dialysis access.

Compared with traditional open surgery, endovascular techniques mean smaller scars, no general anaesthesia in many cases, faster recovery, shorter hospital stays and the ability to safely treat elderly patients with multiple comorbidities.

Endovascular care requires a dedicated cath lab, advanced imaging, modern devices and — most importantly — a vascular surgeon who can switch to open surgery instantly if needed. Dr. Sharma's training and 21+ years of experience cover both worlds, giving patients the safest possible care.

Treatment options

How Dr. Pritee Sharma treats this condition

Peripheral Angioplasty & Stenting

Restores blood flow to legs blocked by atherosclerosis.

EVAR (Endovascular Aneurysm Repair)

A stent-graft is deployed inside an abdominal aortic aneurysm through two small groin punctures, sealing it from within.

TEVAR (Thoracic EVAR)

Same principle for aneurysms and dissections of the thoracic aorta.

Carotid Artery Stenting (CAS)

Treats severe neck artery narrowing to prevent stroke, with embolic protection devices.

AV Fistula & Dialysis Access

Creation, maintenance and salvage of AV fistulas for haemodialysis.

Venous Interventions

EVLA, RFA, VenaSeal, venous stenting and IVC filters.

Embolisation

Targeted blocking of bleeding vessels, varicoceles, uterine fibroids and tumours.

Benefits of early diagnosis

Why early care matters

  • Pinhole procedures instead of major open surgery
  • Shorter hospital stay (often same-day discharge)
  • Safer for elderly and high-risk patients
  • Faster return to normal activity
  • Less blood loss and lower infection risk

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

For most patients, yes — particularly the elderly and those with heart or lung disease. The trade-off is the need for life-long imaging surveillance after stent-graft procedures.

A standard infrarenal EVAR takes 90–120 minutes. Most patients are discharged within 2–3 days.

Most peripheral procedures are done under local anaesthesia with mild sedation. EVAR and carotid stenting may use regional or general anaesthesia.

Recovery

What to expect during recovery

  • Most procedures are walk-in / walk-out day-care — no inpatient stay required
  • Return to desk work in 24–48 hours; driving in 2–3 days
  • Mild bruising or soreness for 3–5 days, controlled with simple painkillers
  • Class-II compression stockings for 2 weeks after vein procedures
  • Resume gym and long-distance travel in 7–10 days
  • First review at 1 week, duplex scan at 4–6 weeks, then yearly follow-up
Hyderabad context

Why this matters in Hyderabad

  • Hyderabad's IT, BPO and corporate workforce spend 9–12 hours seated daily — a leading driver of varicose veins, DVT and venous reflux in patients under 45.
  • High prevalence of diabetes across Telangana (over 14% of urban adults) makes diabetic foot disease and PAD some of the most common limb-threatening conditions seen at Renova Century Hospital.
  • Hot, humid summers and prolonged standing in retail, teaching and healthcare further increase the burden of chronic venous insufficiency in Hyderabad and Secunderabad.
  • Patients travel to Banjara Hills for vascular care from across Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Maharashtra — Dr. Sharma's team coordinates out-station travel, imaging review and cashless insurance.
