Great 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 کاملRandomized clinical trial comparing endovenous laser ablation, radiofrequency ablation, foam sclerotherapy and surgical stripping for great saphenous varicose veins.
BACKGROUND This randomized trial compared four treatments for varicose great saphenous veins (GSVs). METHODS Five hundred consecutive patients (580 legs) with GSV reflux were randomized to endovenous laser ablation (980 and 1470 nm, bare fibre), radiofrequency ablation, ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy or surgical stripping using tumescent local anaesthesia with light sedation. Miniphlebe...
متن کاملCatheter - Directed Sclerotherapy for Saphenous Vein Incompetence
S clerotherapy refers to the introduction of a drug into the lumen of a vein with the intended consequence of endoluminal venous fibrosis and subsequent vein closure. Clinically, vein closure is desired to mitigate the effects of venous hypertension caused by retrograde venous flow. The mechanism of action of sclerosing solutions is directed toward the complete destruction of endothelial cells ...
متن کاملEndovenous ablation (radiofrequency and laser) and foam sclerotherapy versus conventional surgery for great saphenous vein varices.
BACKGROUND Minimally invasive techniques to treat great saphenous varicose veins include ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy (USGFS), radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and endovenous laser therapy (EVLT). Compared with conventional surgery (high ligation and stripping (HL/S)), proposed benefits include fewer complications, quicker return to work, improved quality of life (QoL) scores, reduced need...
متن کاملFive-year results of a randomized clinical trial of conventional surgery, endovenous laser ablation and ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy in patients with great saphenous varicose veins.
BACKGROUND A variety of techniques exist for the treatment of patients with great saphenous vein (GSV) varicosities. Few data exist on the long-term outcomes of these interventions. METHODS Patients undergoing conventional surgery, endovenous laser ablation (EVLA) and ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy (UGFS) for GSV varicose veins were followed up for 5 years. Primary outcome was obliterat...
