UPMC Pittsburgh Vascular Symposium 2025 — 68 talks across the whole vascular field
The UPMC Pittsburgh Vascular Symposium 2025, the 22nd annual meeting, reviews where vascular care stands today across medical, endovascular and open surgical treatment. Sixty-eight videos — about 11 hours 14 minutes, no PDFs — cover venous disease and dialysis access, carotid debates on CEA versus TCAR, type B dissection and TEVAR, EVAR and open AAA repair, tibial and pedal limb salvage, office-based labs and AI, with panel discussions and case reviews throughout.

What you’ll be able to do
- Choose between CEA and TCAR and interpret carotid duplex criteria
- Decide on TEVAR or medical therapy for uncomplicated type B dissection
- Plan EVAR in hostile anatomy, manage type 1A endoleak and decide on open repair
- Treat tibial occlusive disease and consider deep vein arterialisation for limb salvage
- Manage superficial and deep venous disease, pelvic congestion and dialysis access
- Weigh antiplatelet strategy and GLP-1 agonists in vascular patients
Inside the course
Venous disease, dialysis access and vascular medicine
Superficial venous insufficiency, iliocaval reconstruction, femoral vein transposition, AI in DVT diagnosis, pelvic congestion, peritoneal and percutaneous access options, GLP-1 agonists, dual antiplatelet therapy and the place of vascular medicine.
UPMC Pittsburgh Vascular Symposium 2025 carotid and aortic sessions
Duplex criteria, hyperperfusion after CEA, a CEA-versus-TCAR debate, common carotid disease; then type B dissection and the IMPROVE-AD study, spinal cord protection after TEVAR, arch and in-situ fenestration, infected aneurysms, bridging stents, rupture and the angulated neck.
Peripheral disease and limb salvage
Telemedicine for limb salvage, stent and balloon choices, tibial disease, deep vein arterialisation, young PAD patients, mesenteric ischemia, SFA restenosis, pedal bypass, disadvantaged populations and shared decision-making in CLTI.
Practice, training and innovation
Office-based labs, 3D printing, medical AI apps, spine exposure, grafts and flaps, mentorship and training tomorrow’s vascular surgeons, plus case reviews on radial access, aortoiliac disease and complications.
