Ablation Varicose Veins: A New Approach to Treatment
Despite recent advancements in treating varicose veins, surgical ablation remains the gold standard. Ablation involves the surgical removal of a specific organ, structure, or part.
In the lower legs, veins have valves that counteract gravity, helping blood return to the heart for oxygenation. Varicose veins occur when these valves weaken, causing blood to pool due to venous insufficiency. This leads to large, delicate veins tightly adhered beneath the skin, making surgical ablation challenging.
During ablation, both the varicose veins and the underlying cause, such as faulty valves, can be addressed. If successful, this prevents the veins from reappearing. However, if varicose veins coincide with dermatitis or recent infections, surgery becomes more complex and may involve increased bleeding and longer duration.
To manage these issues, surgeons use a pneumatic tourniquet on the lower limb. This device temporarily restricts blood flow to create a clear and dry surgical field, facilitating a smoother procedure. Before applying the tourniquet, a preoperative ultrasound ensures the arteries are functioning properly. The tourniquet is only used for 30 to 90 minutes to minimize the risk of tissue damage.
While the notion of surgery can be daunting, this procedure is typically outpatient, allowing same-day discharge. It involves a small incision that requires just a band-aid, without stitches, making it a less invasive option with minimal complications.
Post-surgery discomfort is usually mild, and patients can return to daily activities almost immediately. However, avoiding air travel and long car rides is crucial until approved by a doctor. Wearing compression stockings reduces bruising and tenderness, and staying active is important to prevent complications like blood clots.
