Minimally Invasive
Frequently, our vascular experts can diagnose and treat vascular problems in the same procedure, which can mean a shorter hospital stay for you. Many times, our specialists use endovascular techniques, which involve inserting a catheter into a blood vessel and repairing the problem without making an incision. Our endovascular procedures include:
The Cavanagh Heart Center is also the only hospital in Phoenix to perform pulmonary artery endarterectomy to treat clot formation in the pulmonary artery that can lead to pulmonary hypertension.
