Frequently Asked Questions – Vascular Surgery Thesis Topics (2025–2026)

1. How do I choose a feasible Vascular Surgery thesis topic for the 2025–2026 academic year?

Choose a topic based on high-volume vascular conditions in your centre such as PAD, diabetic foot, varicose veins, DVT, AV fistula dysfunction or aneurysm management. Select an area where patient availability, imaging (Doppler/CTA), OT/endovascular support and follow-up are realistically possible during residency.

2. Which study designs are commonly accepted for Vascular Surgery theses?

Common designs include prospective observational studies, comparative analyses (open vs endovascular), Doppler-based diagnostic studies, outcome studies after revascularization, limb salvage predictors, and AV fistula patency evaluations. These study formats are practical and widely accepted across Indian vascular surgery training centres.

3. What should I discuss with my guide before finalising a Vascular Surgery thesis topic?

Discuss expected case volume, imaging availability (Doppler/CTA/MRA), feasibility of follow-up, endovascular suite access, data documentation quality, and whether similar vascular surgery topics were approved recently. Ensure the topic aligns with your centre’s strengths and has measurable and clinically meaningful outcomes.
