One of the most common medical pathologies of our time is varicose veins of the lower extremities. Simultaneously, the lower extremity pathological veins are deformed, dilated, form knots, and convolutions due to violation of the mechanism of the prevention of reverse blood flow. Vein removal surgery is the only radical way to solve the disease's mature stages, especially in cases where there is a risk of possible development of dangerous complications.
Nodular veins protruding from the legs (this pathology is more common in women) spoil the aesthetics of appearance and cause pain, discomfort, and many other unpleasant sensations. The legs become swollen, the skin becomes unhealthy earthy, and at night there are cramps.
Medications and compression stockings delay the progression of the disease and alleviate the negative symptoms, but only surgical operations to remove veins on the legs help to solve the problem dramatically. Surgery aims to achieve several results:
Before the operation for varicose veins, an interview is conducted with a specialist, which includes a detailed collection of complaints and medical history and a comprehensive diagnosis, which includes a vascular examination and delivery of laboratory tests. The doctor must make an objective picture of the nature and extent of the disease to choose the optimal surgical tactics.
The operation to remove veins is called phlebectomy - this is the general name of the technique used by vascular surgeons and phlebologists. Combined phlebectomy is performed in stages and includes the following stages and methods of operation:
Other advanced techniques used for minor vascular damage include laser coagulation, radiofrequency ablation, steam treatment, and BIOGLUE treatment.
Laser coagulation - the effect on the vessel of a targeted laser beam. As a result of the impact of the pulse flare, the lumen of the vessel is glued (sclerosed), after which the vein is resorbed for some time. The technique is used in cases where varicose veins have retained a straight shape or in the presence of small branches. The operation is performed under ultrasound control.
radiofrequency ablation (RFA / EVRF / CLOSUREFAST or VNUS) is a method of removing varicose veins using the energy of radiofrequency waves. The method of radiowave ablation is based on the influence of high temperatures (microwaves), under the action of which the wall of the varicose vein is heated and eventually "sealed". After a few months, the vein is replaced by connective tissue and disappears.
Steam treatment - steam is fed into the lumen of the affected vessel, resulting in glueing of the walls, and the vein is excluded from the bloodstream. This technique is effective provided the nodal branches are removed.
Treatment of varicose veins with BIOGLUE (VenaBlock, VenaSeal) is an innovative method of non-thermal exposure to the vein wall, resulting in complete occlusion (glueing) of the patient's varicose vein. Cyanoacrylate bioglue is used - a solution that can glue the vein from the inside for several minutes and eliminate pathological venous reflux. The method of treatment of varicose veins using biological glue is evaluated as one of the priorities.
The use of modern techniques for the removal of varicose veins in Kyiv can greatly reduce the rehabilitation period and achieve a high cosmetic effect. During the recovery period, it is necessary to strictly follow the doctor's prescriptions to avoid possible complications.
The recovery program after removal of veins includes wearing compression underwear, diet, taking drugs to prevent blood clots and physical therapy. The Dobrobut Medical Center uses a comprehensive approach to solving health problems, so rehabilitation is given no less attention than surgery and drug therapy. Monitoring the condition of patients at all stages is an important component of the clinic.
