ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinical effectiveness of foam sclerotherapy for lower extremity varicose vein with deep venous valve incompetence.Methods A retrospective study was carried out in 124 patients (185 limbs) receiving foam sclerotherapy in our department.Sixty-one limbs diagnosed as deep venous valve incompetence were categorized as the observation group,while 124 limbs without that were the control group.The main outcome were success rate,remission rate of various symptoms and signs,the scores of CEAP and CIVIQ.Results The follow up rate was 69.3%,and the follow-up period ranged from one to nine months.There was no statistical difference in the success rate between the observation group (93.4%) and control group (94.4%)(P>0.05).However,the symptom of heaviness and oedema and the CIVIQ scores in observation group be inferior to the control group,and the difference of them were statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion Deep venous valve incompetence could not decrease the success rate of foam sclerotherapy,but may influence the remission of some symptoms.It should be supplemented with medical elastic stockings or ringing of femoral veins.
