Varicose veins are permanent dilation of vein, usually in lower limb. The lower limb varix is a subcutaneous vein whose diameter is greater than 3 mm. Varices are usually winding. They are the site of a blood reflux (varicose veins Austin). One of most common diseases of adult population, with 75% of Country will be achieved, and 25% require medical or surgical care.
A flexible guide, also known as "stripper" is inserted into vein through the ankle so it comes out at the other end, in groin. An "olive" having a larger diameter than the vein is attached to bottom of stripper. When will descend thereof olive cause the vein to be thus removed from the leg.
When only one parent is affected, the risk drops to 62% for the female child and 25% for the male child. If no parent is reached, the risk of developing varices are 20%, regardless of sex of child. Various aggravating factors exist: pregnancy (hormonal factor) especially if they are repeated, prolonged standing or sitting, obesity, constipation, wearing clothes that tighten (garters, girdles, below), heat and certain exercises such as weight training and weightlifting they exert a negative pressure on the venous system, increasing leg pain and risk of varices in susceptible individuals. Large size men also have more propensity to have varices.
Compression stockings are used to compress the dilated vein and restore a better blood circulation. Depending on the level, we talk about low or tights or socks. There are several compression forces adapted to evolution of disease and the products are purchased in pharmacies and orthopedic shops. It is useful to wear them as often as possible, hence the importance of choosing a product adapted to morphology and each activity. However, there are many cases where installation is difficult (pain, joint problems ...) or poorly tolerated (heat ...).
A varices is called primary when it occurs by itself without mechanical causal factor. It is called secondary when it occurs due to another underlying problem such obstruction on deep vessels (takes it as an alternative lane), deep venous reflux (due to a congenital absence of venous valves or a post-thrombotic destruction) or more rarely in arteriovenous shunt (pathological connection of an artery directly into a vein).
To determine the insufficient saphenous vein, the surgeon will prescribe a Doppler examination, that is to say, an ultrasound examination for exploring intravascular blood flow. Vascular doctor will be able to map the vein which will locate the reflux and leakage points and determine the main superficial vein that are healthy. Before the intervention, it is important to shave the legs and wash with Betadine before arriving at the hospital. The surgeon will mark the previously felt pen varices vein to properly identify varices branches a few hours before the operation.
There are different surgical techniques for operating varices vein. But most practiced is the stripping, also called stripping. When the main valves saphenous show no abnormalities, simple extraction of varices branches is possible. By cons when varices vein are important and there he insufficient valves saphenous trunks, stripping is necessary.
Stripping involves removing the saphenous vein, usually with its branches "stripping plus phlebectomies" under general anesthesia or spinal anesthesia anesthesia lumps. The operation takes place in three stages: the ligation, stripping itself and elimination of small residual varices (phlebectomy. Crossectomy involves interrupting the connection between the diseased vein and the deep venous system. For the great saphenous vein, an incision is made in groin, another ankle or hock and the small saphenous vein, an incision behind the knee and the second also at the ankle or calf. Ligation will be performed where the vein empties into deep venous system.
