Specialty Interest:

Dr. Iqbal specializes in endovascular techniques to restore blood flow, manage bleeding, and prevent complications in arterial and venous systems. Key procedures include:

• Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) Management: Angioplasty and drug-eluting stenting for lower extremity ischemia, with a focus on chronic total occlusions using advanced atherectomy devices.
• Aortic Aneurysm Repair: Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) and thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for abdominal and thoracic aneurysms.
• Dialysis Access Interventions: Creation and maintenance of arteriovenous fistulas/grafts, including thrombectomy, balloon angioplasty, and stent placement to optimize hemodialysis access.
• Pulmonary Embolism and Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) Treatment: Catheter-directed thrombolysis, mechanical thrombectomy, and IVC filter placement/retrieval for acute and chronic thromboembolic disease.
• Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE): Transcatheter embolization to reduce fibroid size and alleviate symptoms, offering a uterus-preserving alternative to hysterectomy.
• Varicocele and Pelvic Congestion Embolization: Percutaneous coil or sclerosant embolization for male infertility and chronic pelvic pain syndromes.
• Nonvascular Interventions
• Tumor Ablation and Biopsy: Radiofrequency ablation (RFA), microwave ablation, and cryoablation for liver, kidney, lung, and bone tumors; image-guided core biopsies for diagnostic accuracy in oncology.
• Abscess Drainage and Biliary Interventions: Percutaneous drainage of fluid collections (e.g., abdominal abscesses or pleural effusions) and biliary decompression via percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography (PTC) with stent placement for obstructive jaundice.
• Gastrointestinal Interventions: Gastrostomy tube placements, enteral feeding access revisions, TACE, TARE, BRTO and transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) creation for portal hypertension and variceal bleeding.
• Musculoskeletal and Pain Management: Joint aspirations/injections, vertebroplasty/kyphoplasty for spinal fractures, and nerve blocks for chronic pain, including genicular artery embolization for knee osteoarthritis.
• Lymphatic and Thoracic Procedures: Lymphangiography with thoracic duct embolization for chylothorax and pleural effusion management via tunneled catheter placement.
