One-Step Approach to Treating Venous Insufficiency
BACKGROUND Patients with venous insufficiency can be treated with office-based, minimally invasive means like radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy (UGFS). Traditional treatment involves ablation of the great saphenous vein (GSV) and the short saphenous vein (SSV) with RFA as a first step. The remaining refluxing tributaries are treated at a later session with U...
متن کاملOne step behind to step ahead – femoral approach to stabilize and to extract functional pacing lead to regain venous access
Transvenous lead extraction can be a method to regain venous access. We present the case of a man, aged 67, with indications to upgrade an ICD to a resynchronization therapy device. Since innominate vein occlusion was diagnosed and extraction of an abandoned ventricular pacing lead did not provide lumen regain, a functional atrial lead was extracted with the femoral approach to stabilization an...
متن کاملChronic Cerebrospinal Venous Insufficiency
I read with interest the article published by Kugler et al. [1]. Regarding the duplex ultrasound examination the author didn't consider the paper by Zamboni et al. [2] published in December 2011 on international angiology. In this document the authors noted that a high prevalence ranging from 62% to 100% of obstructive lesions has been found by some teams in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS...
متن کاملEdema in venous insufficiency
Edema is a clinical state characterized by an accumulation of fluid in the interstitial or intracellular space. This accumulation develops when the net transcapillary filtration rate exceeds the lymphatic drainage rate over a period of time. In other words, increased filtration or reduced lymph flow or both. The present chapter focuses on the lower limb edema frequently associated with venous i...
متن کاملChronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency.
The initial peer-review publications by Zamboni and colleagues described cerebral venous circulatory patterns in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) that were distinct from those observed in a population without neurologic disease and concluded that interventions to modify these could provide a potential therapy for the disease development and/or its associated symptoms. These publications co...
