Selection of Treatment Techniques for Lower Extremity Varicose Vein Disease

Transient thrombocytosis after endovenous laser treatment for primary varicose vein of the lower extremity.

We presented a case of a completely occluded great saphenous vein and transient thrombocytosis following endovenous laser treatment (EVLT) for primary varicose veins of the lower extremity. A 54-year-old man with a left saphenous varicose vein underwent EVLT surgery. Twelve-watt laser irradiation was delivered over the length of 33 cm of the saphenous vein.

Lower Extremity Peripherals Arterial Disease Treatment

Haemoglobin of varicose vein, varicose vein with thrombophlebitis and in parietal thrombus of varicose vein.

The contents of haemoglobin and protein were determined in the homogenate of that material. Only small quantities of haemoglobin were found in walls of unchanged veins. Greater amounts of haemoglobin were observed in walls of varicose veins, especially in walls of varicose veins with thr...
