Sergio E. Sastriques Dunlop, MD is an Assistant Professor of Vascular Surgery at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, where he practices the full spectrum of vascular surgery, including complex arterial and venous disease, with a focused academic interest in venous pathophysiology and advanced venous interventions.
Dr. Sastriques Dunlop earned his medical degree from the Universidad Nacional de Córdoba in Argentina. He completed General Surgery training followed by a Vascular Surgery Fellowship at the University of Buenos Aires. He later served as an attending vascular surgeon in the Phlebolymphology Service at the Favaloro Foundation, where he developed a strong interest in venous hemodynamics, pelvic venous disorders (PeVD), and complex venous reconstructions.
He subsequently completed an Integrated Vascular Surgery Residency at Eastern Virginia Medical School, where he gained comprehensive training in open and endovascular management of aortic, peripheral arterial, cerebrovascular, and complex venous disease.
His current clinical and research focus centers on pelvic venous disorders, chronic pelvic pain of venous origin, iliac vein pathology, deep venous obstruction, post-thrombotic reconstruction and arterio-venous malformations. He is particularly interested in refining diagnostic strategies for PeVD, advancing understanding of venous hemodynamics, and critically evaluating indications and long-term outcomes of iliac vein interventions.
Dr. Sastriques Dunlop is actively engaged in research and education in venous disease and is committed to advancing evidence-based, physiology-driven approaches within the evolving field of venous surgery.
