Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of the treatment chronic venous insufficiency in lower extremity by endovenous laser ablation at Radiology Department in Bach Mai hospital.
Subjects and Methods: Prospective cohort on 20 patients with chronic venous insufficiency in lower extremity treated at Radiology Department in Bach Mai hospital from August 2016 to May 2017.
Results: The occlusion rate of great saphenous vein was 95,6%, mild complications included ecchymosis (26,1%), pain postprocedure score at 3,4 point (according to VAS). Revised VCSS at 1-month-post procedure was improved evidently (VCSS pre- and post treatment, 8.7±3.0 and 1.9±2.6).


Conclusion: Endovenous laser ablation is a mini-invasive and safe therapy, improved clinical symptoms for patients.
