Abstract Background Endovenous ablation techniques and ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy (UGFS) have largely replaced open surgery for treatment of great saphenous varicose veins. This was a randomized trial to compare the effect surgery, endovenous laser (EVLA) (with phlebectomies) UGFS on quality life occlusion rate vein (GSV) 12 months after surgery. Methods Patients with symptomatic, uncomplicated veins (CEAP class C2–C4) were examined at baseline, 1 month year. Before discharge week,...
Abstract Background New treatment methods have challenged open surgery as a for great saphenous vein (GSV) insufficiency, the most common being ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy (UGFS) and endovenous laser ablation (EVLA). This study evaluated long-term results of surgery, EVLA UGFS in GSV reflux. Methods Patients with symptomatic reflux were randomized to undergo either or UGFS. The main outcome measure was occlusion rate at 5 years after operation. Results included 196 patients treated...
Abstract Background A variety of minimally invasive techniques are available for the treatment varicose great saphenous vein (GSVs). Non-tumescent, non-thermal ablation methods have been developed. This study compared mechanochemical (MOCA), a non-tumescent, technique, with two endovenous thermal requiring tumescence in an RCT. Methods Patients GSV reflux were randomized to undergo MOCA, or laser (EVLA) radiofrequency (RFA). The primary outcome measure was occlusion rate at 1 year. Results...
