Abstract:
ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of the comprehensive surgical management of primary venous reflux disease in lower extremity. MethodsComprehensive surgical management was performed on 108 patients( 126 limbs) with primary venous reflux disease between February, 1996 and Sept, 2000. All limbs were performed with superficial venous operation. External valvuloplasty of femoral vein valve was given to 83 cases(97 limbs) simultaneously, and to 22 cases (26 limbs) with concomitant subfascial endoscopic perforator surgery(SEPS). 3 cases (3 limbs) were operated with concomitant SEPS only. ResultsVenous claudication,swelling, and aching disappeared in 80.2% of limbs( 101/126) and apparent improvement in 19.8 % of limbs(25/126). All varicose veins were gone. Ulcer healing pre sented in 80 % of the limbs(8/10) with ulcers and ulcer decreasing in 20% of the limbs(2/10) in 3～6 months after superficial and deep venous operations. Ulcer healing presented in 23 cases(26 limbs) with ulcers and ulcer decreasing in remaining 2 limbs in 14 to 32 days after additional SEPS besides superficial and or deep venous operations. Deep venous valve sufficiency was demonstrated in 89.7% (113/126) of the limbs by Color Duplex. ConclusionIn the patients with severe primary venous reflux disease,comprehensive surgical management with concomitant superficial, deep and perforating veins might greatly improve the clinical effect.
