Necrotizing fasciitis following saphenofemoral junction ligation with long saphenous vein stripping: a case report
INTRODUCTION Necrotizing fasciitis is a rare condition with a mortality rate of around 34%. It can be mono- or polymicrobial in origin. Monomicrobial infections are usually due to group A streptococcus and their incidence is on the rise. They normally occur in healthy individuals with a history of trauma, surgery or intravenous drug use. Post-operative necrotizing fasciitis is rare but accounts...
متن کاملGreat saphenous varicose vein surgery without saphenofemoral junction disconnection.
BACKGROUND The aim of this case-control study was to determine whether preoperative duplex imaging could predict the outcome of varicose vein surgery without saphenofemoral junction (SFJ) disconnection. The duplex protocol included a reflux elimination test (RET) and assessment of the competence of the terminal valve of the femoral vein. METHODS One hundred patients with chronic venous diseas...
متن کاملLate recurrent saphenofemoral junction reflux after ligation and stripping of the greater saphenous vein.
OBJECTIVE This study was done to determine the long-term incidence of refluxing epifascial-to-deep vein reconnections in the area of the former saphenofemoral junction after ligation of the true junction, along with all proximal tributaries, and resection of the greater saphenous vein. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 125 limbs in 77 patients, representing 66% of 117 survivors among 602 patien...
متن کاملPatient characteristics and physician-determined variables affecting saphenofemoral reflux recurrence after ligation and stripping of the great saphenous vein.
OBJECTIVE To identify patient and physician-controlled treatment variables that might predict the persistence or redevelopment of saphenofemoral junction (SFJ) reflux. METHODS Thirteen European centers, with substantial lower extremity venous disease practices, examined their experience with SFJ ligation and GSV stripping for primary varicose veins in patients followed for > or =2 years, ente...
