Abstract: | Results of diagnosis and treatment of 270 patients with varicose disease were analyzed. Based on duplex scanning two groups of patients were divided: group 1 consisted of 164 patients with low-intensity reflux, group 2 consisted of 106 patients with high-intensity reflux. Patients of group 1 were treated with ultrasound-assisted puncture sclerotherapy. In group 2 sclerosurgical procedures were used: sclerosant was injected into great saphenous vein trough catheter after crossectomy. For obliteration of varicose subcutaneous veins and perforants of shank the Irish technique was used. In group 1 recurrence of the disease was revealed in 9.1% patients, in group 2 -- in 9.4% patients. |
