If you've been diagnosed with aortic disease, or have a family history, close monitoring is crucial. Imaging tests help track the size of your aorta. As the aorta dilates, the risks increase. Potential complications include:

• Aortic Aneurysm – A bulge that can rupture or tear
• Aortic Dissection – A tear through all three layers of the aortic wall
• Aortic Rupture – A full-thickness tear of the aorta

Our team recommends surgery based on the latest American College of Cardiology and American Heart Association guidelines.

Open Aortic Surgery

For patients who can tolerate traditional surgery, our surgeons may use smaller or standard incisions depending on the case.

Endovascular Aortic Surgery

This less invasive alternative uses a thin catheter to guide a stent-graft into place via a small incision, typically in the groin. It’s ideal for patients who may not tolerate open surgery.

Our team will review your medical history and may request additional imaging or labs in advance.

During Your Visit

We’ll discuss your health, explain your test results, and share recommended treatment options.
