Peripheral Vascular
Led by Carlos Mena, MD, Director of the Cardiac catheterization laboratory and Vascular Medicine Program, Yale Interventional Cardiology is among the country’s premier programs in the treatment of non-cardiac vascular diseases. This aligns with our global model of, “head to toe” care for the vascular patient. The interventional cardiology team at Yale treats a broad variety of vascular disorders with emphasis in primary and secondary prevention measures. The peripheral vascular team utilizes state-of-the-art technologies and is active in the development new supporting platforms for PAD including drug eluting balloons to reduce restenosis, new generation stent and atherectomy platforms for lower extremity disease, endovascular carotid stenting, and microvascular stenting for erectile dysfunction. The Peripheral Vascular Program accepts four fellows yearly into a Yale Non-ACGME accredited Advanced Peripheral Vascular Interventions Fellowship (three clinical and one research).
