Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the clinical significance of antegrade lower limb venography in varicose veins of lower limbs.
Methods:The data of 230 cases of varicose veins of lower limb in Department of Vascular Surgery, Xiangyang Central Hospital from June 2018 to August 2019 were examined by antegrade lower limb venography. All patients were divided into simple varicose veins group (group A, 67 cases) and secondary varicose veins group (group B, 63 cases) according to the patency of deep veins. The data of sex, limb side, swelling and ulcer were analyzed respectively.
Results:There was no significant difference in the results of sex between the two groups (57.5% vs 63.5%, P>0.05). The incidence of left side in group A was lower than that in group B (59.3% vs 76.2%, P<0.05). And the incidence of swelling of lower extremities and ulcer in boot area in group A was lower than that in group B (31.1% vs 49.2%, P<0.05; 18.6% vs 31.7%, P<0.05 respectively).
Conclusions:Combined with swelling of lower extremities, ulcer in boot area or the varicose veins in left side had a higher incidence of secondary varicose veins. Anterograde venography of lower extremities can accurately distinguish the classification of varicose veins of lower extremities and improve the diagnostic coincidence rate, which has significant clinical significance.
