Endovenous laser ablation of varicose perforating veins with the 1470-nm diode laser using the radial fibre slim.
BACKGROUND Endovenous Laser Ablation (EVLA) is one of the most accepted treatment options for varicose veins. The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of the new radial fiber slim (ELVeS-radial-slim kit™) for the 1470 nm diode laser in perforator veins with a 1 month follow-up. METHODS Our prospective observational cohort study comprised 69 perforating veins in 55 pati...
متن کاملIntraluminal fibre-tip centring can improve endovenous laser ablation: a histological study.
OBJECTIVE In this histological study, the lateral saphenous vein of the goat was treated using a laser fibre to which a tulip-shaped, self-expandable catheter had been fixed to achieve endovenous laser ablation (EVLA). The catheter centres the laser fibre in the vein preventing direct contact with the vein wall. This study aims to establish whether prevention of direct contact between the fibre...
متن کاملStudy of laser ablation using nano-second laser pulses
In this paper, the laser ablation process based on the irradiation of nanosecond pulsed lasers on a copper target surface in the presence of Helium gas is studied. The dynamical behaviors of the generated plasma in the helium gas and evaporated copper at the atmospheric pressure are examined using a laser pulse, laser wavelength of and intensity of 7×1010W/cm2. A one-dimensional thermal model ...
متن کاملEndovenous laser ablation for the treatment of varicose veins.
Lower extremity venous insufficiency secondary to saphenous vein insufficiency is a common medical condition that decreases a patient's quality of life. Traditionally treated with high ligation and stripping, minimally invasive procedures using endovenous thermal ablation techniques, such as endovenous laser ablation, have evolved. The use of detailed imaging and advances in the understanding o...
متن کاملEndovenous laser ablation (EVLA) to treat recurrent varicose veins.
OBJECTIVES This cohort study assesses the effectiveness and safety of endovenous laser ablation (EVLA) in the management of recurrent varicose veins (RVVS). METHOD 104 limbs (95 patients) undergoing EVLA for RVVS were grouped according to pattern of reflux. For patients with recurrent SFJ/great saphenous vein (GSV) (Group GR) and SPJ/small saphenous vein (SSV) (Group SR) varicosities ablation...
