Dr. Marcone Lima Sobreira, MD, PhD, is a vascular and endovascular surgeon and academic investigator at Botucatu Medical School, São Paulo State University (UNESP), Brazil. He serves as Coordinator of the Graduate Program in Surgery and Translational Medicine and is actively involved in clinical practice, surgical training, and translational vascular research.
His academic work focuses on peripheral arterial disease, chronic limb-threatening ischemia, carotid disease, and venous thromboembolism, with particular interest in improving risk stratification, imaging-based phenotyping, and clinical outcomes after vascular interventions. His earlier research has contributed to the understanding of atherosclerotic disease, endovascular treatment strategies, and predictors of limb and cardiovascular outcomes in patients with advanced vascular disease.
More recently, his research program has expanded toward innovative imaging and translational approaches to vascular pathology, including the application of advanced ultrasound techniques and vascular biomechanics to better characterize disease evolution and guide clinical decision-making. This emerging line of investigation seeks to bridge vascular imaging, pathophysiology, and clinical outcomes, aiming to identify novel biomarkers of thrombus remodeling and determinants of limb prognosis in high-risk populations.
At the 2026 VAM, Dr. Sobreira presents two studies reflecting these complementary research directions: “Longitudinal Shear Wave Elastography Identifies Distinct Phenotypes of Thrombus Evolution in Acute Deep Vein Thrombosis” and “Chronic Kidney Disease Severity and Limb Outcomes After Isolated Infrapopliteal Endovascular Revascularization for Chronic Limb-Threatening Ischemia.” Together, these investigations highlight his group’s ongoing efforts to integrate advanced vascular imaging, clinical epidemiology, and outcome-based research to improve the management of complex arterial and venous diseases.
