THERMAL AND NON-THERMAL METHODS OF TREATMENT OF PATIENTS WITH PRIMARY VARICOSЕ DISEASES OF THE LOWER LIMBS OF STAGE C2

Treatment results of primary varicose disorders has been shown. The experience of using of thermal (endovenous laser ablation) and non-thermal methods (endovenous mechanochemical ablation, echo-controlled introduction of bioglue) in treatment of stage C2 chronic venous is shown. The purpose of this work is to evaluate the efficiency of endovenous ablation techniques. The treatment of 58 patients was analyzed. In the group of patients who underwent endovenous laser obliteration, reflux was not detected. In the group of patients with mechanochemical obliteration, reflux was determined in 3 patients (27.2%) at follow-up after 3 months required supplementation with foam sclerobliteration. In the group of patients with the introduction of bio glue, reflux was determined in 1 patient (20%) at the examination after 3 months. The received results lead to conclusion, that endovenous laser coagulation of affected veins is a reliable method of threatment, the gold standard. The advantage of non-thermal methods is the absence of thermal effects on the paravenous structures, respectively, patients have no pain during the procedure, increases comfort, and there is no risk of damage to the paravenous nerves. Another advantage of non-thermal techniques is no need to use of tumescent anesthesia, since only one puncture is required for the operation, which is comfortable for patients. The use of adhesive vein obliteration is justified in patients with signs of a short reflux duration and has an advantage for the patient due to the absence of the need for compression in the postoperative period. Non-thermal methods require further research and widespread implementation in practice.
