Xavier Berard, MD, PhD (he/him/his)

Senior Consultant, Professor of Vascular Surgery
Vascular Surgery Department, Bordeaux University Hospital
Bordeaux, Aquitaine, France

I am a French vascular surgeon, consultant in the department of Vascular Surgery in Bordeaux University Hospital since 2010, and have been a full Professor of Vascular Surgery in the University of Bordeaux since 2016.

I obtained my medical degree in Bordeaux University in 1999 and then undertook my internship between 1999 and 2005 and my fellowship between 2005 and 2009 in the Vascular Surgery Department of Bordeaux University Hospital. In the following four years, I completed a PhD thesis in vascular biomaterials and in 2010 worked as a research fellow in Lausanne University Hospital, Switzerland.

I have been board certified from the French College of Vascular and Endovascular Surgeons since 2008 and from the European Society for Vascular and Endovascular Surgery (FEBVS exam) since 2010.

I have been an examiner of the FEBVS exam since 2014, reviewer of the European Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery since 2016. I am also a member of the ESVS guidelines writing group for vascular graft infection and AAA. I have participated in 86 publications indexed in PubMed.

I am currently working with Professor Eric Ducasse, head of our vascular surgery department and tertiary aortic center, on the management of complex open and endovascular procedures.
My personal surgical interest is open surgery of (thoraco)abdominal aneurysms, redo aortic surgery, infections in vascular surgery, EVAR explantation and biomaterials.
