“…The main drawback is the possibility of the wire to get stuck on vein wall or even cause perforation which is not very hardly resolved by pulling back the catheter, but may cause substantial postoperative pain and discomfort. van Eekeren et al [14] documented their one year results in 92 patients and 106 limbs and reported GSV occlusion rates as 93.2% in six months and 88.2% at one year. One-month to six-month occlusion rates of >90% were documented in other series.…”

The advent of non-thermal, non-tumescent techniques for treatment of varicose veins

Varicose veins are common and their management has undergone a number of changes over the years. Surgery has been the traditional treatment option, but towards the 21st century, new endovenous thermal ablation techniques, namely, radiofrequency ablation and endovenous laser ablation, were introduced which have revolutionised the way varicose veins are treated. These minimally invasive techniques are associated with earlier return to normal activity and less pain, as well as enabling procedures to be carried out as day cases. They are, however, also known to cause a number of side-effects and involve infiltration of tumescent fluid which can cause discomfort. Non-thermal, non-tumescent methods are believed to be the answer to these unwelcome effects. Ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy is one such non-thermal, non-tumescent method and, despite a possible lower occlusion, has been shown to improve the quality of life of patients. The early results of two recently launched non-thermal, non-tumescent methods, mechanochemical ablation and cyanoacrylate glue, are promising and are discussed.
