FEATURES OF SUPERFICIAL VEIN THROMBOSIS IN PATIENTS WITH A LARGE DIAMETER OF GREAT SAPHENOUS VEIN

Introduction. Superficial vein thrombosis is characterized by the formation of thrombi in superficial veins with subocclusion or occlusion venous lumen and its inflammatory reaction, which occurs more often lower extremities. Chronic disease 75–88% cases most important clinically identified factor development thrombosis. The great saphenous affected 60–80% cases. A population-based study found that chronic a risk for thromboembolism correlates an increased mortality patients. Venous major burden worldwide, approximately 10 000 per year. Objective: to assess prevalence patients identify relationship between diameter Materials methods. Total 925 were analyzed from January 2019 December 2021 at Clinical Department Surgery, Traumatology, Orthopedics, Phthisiology Sumy State University (Sumy Laser Clinic, LLC) who undergoing treatment. examined diameters reflux using ultrasound mm below sapheno-femoral junction, upper thirds thigh. Results: Of cases, was observed 53 accounted 5.73 % total. Women 67.9 (36), men – 32.1 (17). included aged 25 69 years (mean age 52.62 ± 10.48 years). In 69.8 (37) ≥ level junction; 49 (26) third thigh; 30.2 (16) That is, extension junction trunk thigh preserved 43.24% Conclusion. results revealed high (5.73%) 69.8% all registered large (≥ mm) vein.
