Retrograde Endovenous Laser Ablation through Saphenopopliteal Junctional Area for Incompetent Small Saphenous Vein: Comparison with Antegrade Approach
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the safety and efficacy of retrograde endovenous laser ablation (EVLA) and to compare it with the conventional antegrade EVLA for incompetent small saphenous vein (SSV). MATERIALS AND METHODS Small saphenous vein was cannulated via two approaches under ultrasound-guidance. One method involved puncturing the SSV cranially at mid-calf (the antegrade group). If the antegrad...
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 radiofrequency ablation of superficial and perforator veins.
Radiofrequency ablation of superficial and perforator veins for venous insufficiency has emerged as a leading alternative to traditional vein stripping operations. This percutaneous technique can be performed in less than an hour using local anesthetic or sedation. The VNUS Closure catheters (VNUS Medical Technologies, San Jose, California) work by resistive heating in the vein wall that is con...
متن کاملTreatment of Venous Ulcer of the Lower Leg by Endovenous Laser Ablation
Venous ulcer is the most advanced stage of chronic venous insufficiency (CVI). Its prevalence is estimated to be between 1% and 3%. Recent articles have suggested that leg ulcers with reflux in superficial veins can be treated by endovenous laser ablation (EVLA). Endovenous laser ablation of the great and/or short saphenous vein has already become the treatment of choice for varicose vein and c...
متن کاملA 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...
