简介:
Overview
This article presents a protocol for treating the great saphenous vein (GSV) and small saphenous vein (SSV) affected by severe pathological reflux using a novel cyanoacrylate-based glue. The technique emphasizes simplicity, speed, and precision, making it accessible for expert operators.
Key Study Components
Area of Science
- Vascular surgery
- Endovenous treatment
- Minimally invasive procedures
Background
- Severe pathological reflux in saphenous veins can lead to significant complications.
- Traditional methods of treatment may be complex and time-consuming.
- New techniques are needed to improve patient outcomes and procedural efficiency.
- The use of cyanoacrylate-based glue offers a promising alternative.
Purpose of Study
- To demonstrate a simple and effective protocol for saphenous vein treatment.
- To evaluate the efficacy of NBCA plus MS glue in achieving vein occlusion.
- To assess patient recovery and outcomes post-treatment.
Methods Used
- Preparation of the treatment area and materials.
- Ultrasound-guided mapping of venous incompetence.
- Injection of cyanoacrylate glue under ultrasound guidance.
- Post-treatment evaluation using ecocolor Doppler.
Main Results
- Complete occlusion of the treated vein was achieved in all patients.
- Patients reported significant reduction in leg pain and edema.
- Most patients returned to normal activities within a week.
- No serious adverse events were reported during the follow-up period.
Conclusions
- The protocol provides a rapid and effective method for treating saphenous vein reflux.
- NBCA plus MS glue is a viable option for vascular occlusion.
- This technique may benefit other areas of vascular surgery.
What is the main advantage of using NBCA plus MS glue?
The main advantage is its simplicity, speed, and precision in achieving vein occlusion.
How long does recovery take after the procedure?
Most patients return to their normal routine within two days and resume work within a week.
Were there any adverse events reported?
No serious adverse events occurred during the observation period.
What was the success rate of vein occlusion?
Complete occlusion was achieved in all patients immediately after treatment.
How is the procedure performed?
The procedure involves ultrasound-guided injection of the glue into the affected veins.
What is the significance of this study?
It introduces a new, effective methodology for treating saphenous vein reflux, which may be applicable in other vascular surgeries.
