[Comparative analysis of horizontal venous reflux surgical correction by large trophic lower leg ulcers]
Abstract:
Subfascial perforant veins dissection (SPVD) of the lower leg was performed in patients with chronic venous insufficiency CEAP class 5 and 6. 252 operations were performed in 236 patients. All patients had trophic lesions (skin hyperpigmentation and lipodermatosclerosis) 218 (92,4%) patients had trophic lower leg ulcer to the time of operation. 30 patients had earlier performed phlebectomy. Open SPVD was performed in 122 cases, endoscopic technique was used in 114 patients. Comparative analysis of these two methods was performed. Long-term results were accessed with the use of SF-36 questionnaire. Efficacy, pathogenetic validity and economic expedience of SPVD by large trophic lower leg ulcers are confirmed by the decrease of postoperative complications and recurrence rate. The horizontal venous reflux elimination and trophic ulcer dissection with intraoperative skin plasty allow a significant improvement of treatment results.
