venenkleber.koeln – Experiences and Results after 1015 Saphenous Vein Treatments / The better Alternative to Stripping Surgery?

Abstract

Endovenous treatment of incompetent veins is well established in Germany. Being an effective alternative to surgery nevertheless endovenous procedures are not first choice. This is totally different to the guidelines of other countries. Non-thermal procedures can reduce risks and side effects such as nerve-lesions. Is it possible to improve outcome by using cyanoacrylate adhesive? We present our results after 1015 procedures of cyanoacrylate gluing of incompetent veins.

Key words

Venous adhesive - endovenous treatment - varicose veins - cyanoacrylate adhesive - catheter technique
