As a fellowship-trained vascular surgeon, Dr. Ryan treats all conditions associated with the peripheral vascular system using medical, traditional open surgical, and minimally-invasive endovascular therapies. At Arkansas Vascular Surgery, our highest priority is providing excellent, individualized care for you, the patient.
Some of the most common conditions treated include:
Aneurysms
An aneurysm is a dilated blood vessel that has a risk of rupture. To prevent rupture, we repair aneurysms by replacing the blood vessel using a graft or by excluding it with a stent.
Peripheral Vascular Disease
Peripheral Vascular Disease, also known as Critical Limb Ischemia, is the result of blockages of
the blood vessels of the lower extremities that can result in pain, tissue loss / ulcer formation,
and limb loss. Minimally-invasive endovascular techniques and surgical bypass, as well as
medical therapies, can reduce the risk of limb loss, alleviate pain, and improve wound healing.
Dialysis Access
Dialysis access enables life-saving renal replacement therapy. We are committed to creating and maintaining dialysis access with the aim to provide the most durable,
infection-resistant access appropriate for each patient.
Vein Disorders
Venous disorders;
spider veins, varicose veins, venous compressive disorders, and venous thrombotic disorders
such as Deep Vein Thrombosis. An accurate diagnosis is essential to having a good outcome
when treating vein disease. Most vein treatments are minimally-invasive and can occur in the
office setting.
Stroke Prevention
One-third of all
strokes are due to Carotid Artery Atherosclerotic Disease. For patients with significant Carotid
Artery Disease, the risk of stroke can be reduced by placing a carotid stent or by performing a
carotid endarterectomy to remove the disease.
Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
For patients with upper extremity pain due to Thoracic Outlet Syndrome, or Upper Extremity Deep Vein
Thrombosis, we relieve the compression on the thoracic outlet.
