Clinical Observation on Radiofrequency Endovenous Obliteration in Treating Great Saphenous Varicose Veins under Ultrasound Monitoring

Objective: To explore clinical effects and the practicability of radiofrequency endovenous obliteration in treating great saphenous varicose veins under ultrasound monitoring. Methods: All 98 patients(134affected limbs) were classified before the surgery by color Doppler ultrasound according to the functions of deep vein, the patients with thrombosis were removed, the shapes of varicose superficial vein in other patients were fixed and the patients were performed with radiofrequency endovenous obliteration under general anesthesia or local infiltration anesthesia, who received adjunctive therapy of punctuate desquamation and vein ringed transfixion on varicose masses under ultrasound monitoring in the surgery. Results: All 98 patients finished the surgery under ultrasound monitoring, cured and discharged, varicose veins were disappeared totally, severe complications such as deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism and others were not found, there was no repatency or relapse in the follow-ups of six months.
