Vascular surgery is a branch of surgery that deals with the vessels of the body: arteries, veins, and the lymphatic system. Diseases and traumas of the blood vessels are treated. It works in close collaboration with angiology and interventional radiology, providing care and treatment of circulation disorders in the legs, upper limbs, neck, and abdomen. When does one see the vascular surgeon? A vascular surgical examination is useful for patients who have already been diagnosed with vascular disease whose only solution is surgery (e.g., narrowing, dilation, or deterioration caused by atherosclerosis, chronic venous insufficiency, aneurysms, malformations, and diabetes). The practice of vascular surgery and vascular imaging has led to the creation of a small sports and leisurewear business that can be consulted at https://ray-play.style
