Welcome to our website !

Our goal is to explain our activity to patients and to healthcare professionals. The Department of Vascular and Endocrin Surgery at Henri Mondor Hospital, Creteil (Paris’ near suburb) is well known all over the world: over 2,000 interventions are performed every year by 4 senior surgeons.
Our unit sarted in the early nineties a clinical program focusing on less invasive therapies of arterial and venous diseases:
- Endovacular replacement of abdominal and thoracic aortic aneurysms
- Endovascular therapy of POAD
- Carotid angioplasty and stenting
- Laser therapy of varicose veines
- Robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery
Complex interventions by conventional surgery are also routinely performed, thanks to up to date technologies of intensive care monitoring and therapy.
Close cooperation with the Department of Vascular Imaging leads to research programs based on sophisticated imaging modalities, and to publications. Non invasive testing of arteries and veins is performed by a team of 9 angiologists.
Many foreign doctors from all over the world, come to visit us, or stay with us to learn our techniques. In our unit, a dedicated team of nurses and paramedics is very close to patients and develops specific techniques for wound healing, in a modern setting. The ORs and the angiosuite are among the most modern facilities in Europe.
As part of a University hospital, teaching and research are part of our missions. Students, residents from Paris, but also from all around France are trained in our unit. We also welcome foreign residents, and senior surgeons from all around the world come to visit us.
We organize staff meetings every week, opened to other specialists. Once a month, we organize an evening meeting to learn from invited guests about recent advances in diagnosis or therapy of a specific disease. Each year in January, we organize a well know congress: Controversies & updates in Vascular Surgery
The official language of the congress is English. We apologize if most of the pages of our website are in French, although you will find a specific page in English for residents in the “Enseignement” (i.e. Teaching) area of the menu bar.
