The results of radiofrequency ablation of lower limbs’ saphenous veins in hospitalization replacement environment

The authors have analyzed the results of treatment of 94 patients with varicose vein disease of lower limbs using the radiofrequency ablation (RQA) of saphenous veins in hospitalization replacement environment on EVRF and VNUS equipment. The clinical effect of the surgery performed was estimated according to pain intensity, course of administration of anesthetics, availability of complications (ecchymosis, paresthesia, deep vein thrombosis), technical results - availability or lack of recanalization. Life quality indices were determined according to CIVIQ2 and Venous Clinical Severity Score (VCSS) in dynamics. The control was carried out in 48 hours, 2 weeks, 1, 6 and 12 months after surgery. The data obtained demonstrate the high efficiency and safety of using endovenous RQA on EVRF and VNUS equipment (15 watts) for the liquidation of vertical as well as horizontal pathological refluxes in surgical treatment of varicose vein disease of lower limbs in hospitalization replacement environment.
