Efficacy and safety of ultrasound‐guided foam sclerotherapy combined with endoluminal radiofrequency closure in patients with varicose veins of lower extremities

Abstract: We aimed to explore the efficacy and safety of ultrasound‐guided foam sclerotherapy combined with endoluminal radiofrequency closure in patients with varicose veins of lower extremities (VVLEs); furthermore, we aimed to provide a theoretical basis for the effective management of VVLE patients in clinical work. From January 1, 2020, to March 1, 2021, 88 patients with VVLE admitted to Third Hospital of Shandong Province were included in this retrospective study. Depending on the type of treatment, the patients w… Show more

“…Conservative management is a non-invasive starting point, particularly for mild cases, pregnant patients, and those opposed to surgery. For patients with severe symptoms and more prominent veins, interventional procedures like endovenous laser ablation, sclerotherapy, surgical stripping, and laser ablation treatment offer effective solutions [2,38,40].…”

“…Consideration of multiple options gives information regarding analysis and acknowledges that mechano-chemical ablation, endovenous laser ablation, and high ligation and stripping are mentioned to have similar costs and outcomes, which might make them comparable in value for money. The analysis aims to provide insights into the economic considerations of different treatment options for varicose veins, helping clinicians and policymakers make informed decisions based on cost-effectiveness and patient outcomes [39,40]. [23,25,27,33,34,36].…”
