Abstract:
Objective To study the efficacy of minimally invasive treatment for lower extremities venous ulcers.Methods A total of 48 patients with lower extremities venous ulcers(56 hmbs)wereexamined with venography to identify the primary lesion that resulted ulcer. According to the type and degree of hemedynamie abnormality,high ligation of the great saphenous vein combined with endovenous laser treatment,subfascial endoscopic perforator surgery,and external banding valvuloplasty of the superficial femoral vein were done in 8 eases(8 limbs),high ligafion of the great saphenous vein combined with endovenous laser treatment and subfascial endoscopic perforator surgery were carried out in 24 cases(28 limbs),and high figation of the great saphenous vein combined with endovenous laser treatment was performed on 16 cases(20 linbs).In all cases,the ulcers were eircumferentially ligated at the same time.Results After the operations,superficial varicosis,pigmentations,and eczematous relieved remarkably in the 56 limbs.In 51 limbs,heavy feeling,ache,and edema disappeared 14-18 days after operation.The ulcers of the 56 limbs healed l6-48 days after operation.During 4 to 46 months follow up,ulcers recurred in 4 limbs(7.1%).Conclusions It is effective to correct the incompetence of the superficial,perforating,and deep veins and manage the surface of ulcers for lower extremities venous ulcers.Endovenous Iaser treatment and subfascial endoscopic perforator surgery are easily performing,minimally invasive,and safe operations.The recurrence of leg ulcers can be reduced by external banding valvuloplasty of the superficial femoral vein.
