Vascular Surgery in Thailand

Vascular surgery in Thailand is delivered by specialist vascular surgeons at accredited hospitals with dedicated vascular suites and hybrid operating theatres. These facilities allow both open surgical and endovascular (catheter-based) approaches to be performed in the same setting, giving surgeons flexibility to use the most appropriate technique for each patient.

The most commonly requested procedure is varicose vein treatment, with options ranging from laser ablation and radiofrequency treatment to traditional stripping for more advanced cases. Most patients are able to walk the same day and return to normal activity within a week.

For more serious conditions, aneurysm repair addresses dangerous weakening of arterial walls, using either open surgery or endovascular stent grafting depending on the location and size. Peripheral artery bypass restores blood flow to the legs in patients with peripheral arterial disease, and carotid endarterectomy clears blocked carotid arteries to reduce stroke risk.

Specialist procedures like AV fistula creation for dialysis access and lymphoedema surgery for chronic swelling are also available. All vascular patients receive thorough pre-operative assessment including duplex ultrasound and CT angiography where needed.
