2000: Autonomous Unit of Vascular Surgery springs up after some years of unstructured activity. Since the beginning I have dealt with all vascular areas of interest with zero mortality according to early indicators AGENAS (National Agency for Regional Health Services ) in non broken abdominal aortic aneurysm repair and carotid endarterectomy.
At the end of 1999 I became involved in, at that time, “emerging” Endovascular Surgery a new “minimally invasive technique “ for the treatment of aneurysms of the thoracic, abdominal aorta and iliac arteries. Convinced that this method could be, in selected cases , better than open surgery because it reduces intervention time, blood loss and hospitalization, enthusiastically I started my journey in EVAR-TEVAR where I found a lot of satisfaction and success, but also some defeats and disappointments. In my “ endovascular journey “ I have been assisted by the team of Hemodynamics, directed by Dr. Mario Zanchetta who shared with me this experience with extreme availability and competence.
