Clinical Study of varicose veins and their management
Journal Title: International Journal of Biomedical and Advance Research - Year 2015, Vol 6, Issue 8
Abstract
Varicose veins and their associated symptoms and complications constitute the most common chronic vascular disorders leading to surgical treatment. Though considerable advances in understanding of venous patho physiology and modern imaging techniques have revolutionized the concept of management of varicosity of lower limb, whether these inferences hold good for our population is a pertinent question. The objective of the study is: 1) Analysis of the clinical features of varicose vein. 2) To know the various treatment modalities adapted for the management of varicose veins. Varicosity of the lower limb is a common clinical entity with, age group of 31-40 being commonly affected. The involvement of long saphenous vein is the commonest. Clinical examination has a high predictive accuracy. The use of color Doppler is a valuable supplement to clinical examination for effective treatment of varicose veins. Operative line of treatment is a primary procedure in the management of varicose veins of lower limbs. LSV stripping up to mid calf is associated with less morbidity so also non-stripping of SSV. The present procedures enable the patient to lead almost normal life after surgery and the mortality rate is very negligible.
