Balloon Angioplasty
This nonsurgical procedure widens a narrowed aorta. During the procedure, a balloon is inflated inside the narrowed aorta to expand the blood vessel. Widening the aorta will improve blood flow to the body.
Travel Advisory: Please be advised that beginning March 31, the New York State Department of Transportation will commence a bridge resurfacing project on the structure that carries the Exit 5A ramp over Interstate 90. Repairs are expected to take several months to complete. During construction, traffic will be reduced to one lane in each direction on the bridge. Motorists should expect delays and are encouraged to seek alternate routes when possible.
