AMC's Department of Vascular Surgery is a division of the Department of Surgery, responsible for surgical and non-surgical treatment for various diseases affecting the arteries and veins.
About the Division of Vascular Surgery
Vascular surgery is a rapidly evolving medical specialty, marked by the development of numerous minimally invasive and percutaneous techniques. At AMC, we not only proactively adopt advanced procedures such as angioplasty and stenting, but also continue to lead in traditional open surgical techniques, which remain fundamental to the field. By mastering both foundational and cutting-edge approaches, the Division of Vascular Surgery at AMC provides optimal, individualized treatment for each patient.
The division includes a team of experienced physicians and operates its own vascular laboratory, where board-certified vascular technicians perform high-quality non-invasive tests. This allows for accurate, patient-specific diagnostic evaluations, forming the basis for tailored treatment plans.
To provide patients with the best treatment options based on a multidisciplinary approach, the division works closely with excellent specialists of AMC in other departments and divisions including Interventional Radiology, Neurology, Nephrology, Cardiology, and Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery.
National Leader in Complex Vascular Surgery
As one of the largest vascular surgery division in Korea, we have performed more than 2,000 cases of carotid endarterectomy since 1995. Over the past five years, we have performed an average of 127 abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repairs annually, including both open surgical repair and endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). In addition, we carry out over 600 arteriovenous fistula (AVF)-related operations each year, underscoring our extensive clinical experience and surgical volume.
