A retrospective study comparing endovenous laser ablation and microwave ablation for great saphenous varicose veins.
BACKGROUND Endo-venous laser or microwave ablation is a minimally invasive surgery for treating varicose veins of lower limbs. AIM The aim of our study was to determine whether endovenous microwave ablation of the greater saphenous vein was associated with better effectiveness and less complications than the endovenous laser ablation. MATERIALS AND METHODS From July 2008 to June 2011, 259 c...
متن کاملOverview of Endovenous Thermal Ablation of Varicose Veins
V ar ic os e V ei ns Endovenous interventions have transformed the treatment of varicose veins during the past decade. Interest in minimally invasive endovenous thermal ablation of the saphenous vein has substantially increased due to multiple reasons. Both radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and endovenous laser therapy (EVLT) can be performed as an office procedure; they are less invasive and usual...
متن کاملUpdate on endovenous radio-frequency closure ablation of varicose veins.
Until recent years, the gold standard for treatment of truncal varicose veins has been high ligation and stripping of the saphenous vein. In the course of the last decade, new minimally invasive techniques based on endothermal ablation are progressively supplanting conventional surgery in the treatment of varicose veins. The endovenous treatment of varicose veins has been developed to reduce co...
متن کاملTargeted endovenous treatment of Giacomini vein insufficiency-associated varicose disease: considering the reflux patterns.
PURPOSE We aimed to assess the technical feasibility of targeted endovenous treatment of Giacomini vein insufficiency (GVI)-associated varicose disease and report our early results. METHODS We retrospectively screened 335 patients with varicose disease who underwent endovenous laser ablation from September 2011 to January 2013, and determined 17 patients who underwent Giacomini vein ablation....
متن کاملIndications to surgical treatment in varicose veins
There isn’t a consensus to the treatment of varicose veins because we don’t have randomized controlled trials [1]. Indication to the treatment is based on different criteria: etiological, clinical and diagnostic. The treatments include: conservative therapy, sclerotherapy, phlebectomy, endovenous laser therapy, radiofrequency ablation, and surgery involving saphenous ligation and stripping [2]....
