[Crossectomy conduction under local anesthesia in conjunction with mini-invasive methods of a varicose disease...

Experience of treatment of 135 patients for varicose disease (VD) of lower extremities (VLE) was analyzed. The investigation objective was the elimination of adverse reactions of general anesthesia and minimization of surgical trauma without loss of the operation radicalism. In 112 (83%) patients a crossectomy (upper and/or lower) was conducted under local infiltrating anesthesia. The criterion for the patients choice for the operation in conditions of local anesthesia was the presence of a VD, independent of its stage. In the investigation were not included the patients, suffering a VD recurrence and its decompensated forms. Our experience witness, that in a certain level of a surgeon qualification present, in a majority of patients, suffering VDLE, including its complicated forms, crossectomy may be performed in conditions of a local anesthesia.
