  • Application of Endoscope in Treatment for Venous Ulcer in Lower Limb

    ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical experiences and treatment effectiveness of chronic venous insufficiency with venous ulcer in lower limb. MethodsSeventy-eight patients (88 limbs) suffering lower limb chronic venous insufficiency with venous ulcer from May 2004 to April 2011 in this hospital were analyzed retrospectively. All the patients had undergone high ligation for great saphenous vein plus endovenous laser treatment plus subfascial endoscopic perforator vein surgery (SEPS). ResultsPostoperative complications included 3 cases of subfascial haematoma; 2 cases of pneumohypoderma; 3 cases of numbness in anterior tibial and ankle areas. All the ulcers healed between 4 to 6 weeks. Follow up period was between 6 months to 5 years. There was only one recurrence due to residual varicose from ankle area. The mean operation time was 20 min (15-30 min) in SEPS, the average blood loss was 2 ml (1-5 ml), and the mean duration of postoperative hospitalization was 5 d (2-8 d). ConclusionsSEPS is a first treatment choice for CVI with venous ulcer. It has less invasiveness, lower chances for bleeding, shorter operation time, quicker recovery, and fewer complications.
