Analysis of influencing parameters of intracavitary laser closure in the treatment of varicose veins of the lower extremities / 国际外科学杂志

ABSTRACT

Varicose veins of the lower extremities are a common disease in vascular surgery and are the result of multiple factors. The clinical manifestations are mainly thickening, tortuosity and dilation of the superficial veins of the lower extremities, which may be accompanied by discomforts such as lower extremity pain and swelling of the lower legs. In severe cases, skin pigmentation of lower extremities, venous ulcers, etc. The current common treatment options include high saphenous vein ligation and stripping, endogenous laser treatment, radiofrequency ablation and foam sclerotherapy, etc. This article reviews some parameter settings and equipment selection that may affect the therapeutic effect and complications of endogenous laser treatment. Hope to help clinicians better choose the device of intracavity laser closure and find the best possible treatment plan for patients.
