What is the cause of varicose vein ?

Some key facts about Varicose veins .

  • The venous system of the leg is comprised of three groups:
    • superficial: long and short saphenous systems and tributaries;
    • deep: between the muscle compartments of the legs;
    • perforators: connecting the superficial and deep systems.
  • Blood passes from the superficial to deep systems via perforators in the calf and also at the saphenofemoral (SFJ), saphenopopliteal (SPJ), and mid-thigh perforators (MTP) which contain one-way valves.
  • Varicose veins are tortuous and dilated segments of veins, associated with valvular incompetence.
  • Affect up to 20% of the population.
  • There is a familial predisposition.

Types of varicose veins 

  • Thread veins: intradermal dilated veins; may be associated with hormonal influences.
  • Flares: often around the ankle and associated with calf perforator incompetence.
  • Stem veins: along long or short saphenous systems.
  • Venous malformations, e.g. congenital (Klippel-Trelaunay syndrome).

What causes varicose veins

  • Primary idiopathic.
  • Secondary:
    • pelvic masses, e.g. pregnancy, uterine fibroids, ovarian mass, pelvic tumour
    • pelvic venous abnormalities, e.g. after pelvic surgery or irradiation, previous iliofemoral deep venous thrombosis (DVT).

Symptoms of varicose veins

  • Symptoms: pain, aching, itching, heaviness, swelling, oedema, cramps, worse at end of day/hot weather/premenstruation.
  • Complications: eczema, excoriation, phlebitis, lipodermatosclerosis, ulceration, or bleeding.

Diagnosis and investigations for Varicose Veins Treatment

  • General condition: oedema, eczema, ulcers (usually medial calf), lipodermatosclerosis, healed ulceration.
  • Standing: cough impulse, thrill, or saphenovarix at SFJ.
  • Tap test. Tap downwards over vein from SFJ; impulse should be interrupted if valves are competent (frequently unhelpful).
  • Trendelenberg test. For competence of SFJ, MTP, and SPJ.
    • With the patient supine, elevate the leg, empty veins, apply tourniquet high in the thigh and ask patient to stand.
    • Look for venous filling and then release the tourniquet, observing filling of the veins.
    • If controlled by the tourniquet and then rapidly fill on release, the incompetent valve is above the level of the tourniquet, i.e. SFJ.
    • Then repeat two times with tourniquet just above knee and below knee to test the MTP and SPJ, respectively.

What are the benefits of RFA – why should I have RFA?

Traditional surgery for varicose veins involves making a cut in your groin to remove the affected vein, this is known as stripping. It is done under general anaesthetic, which means you’re asleep for the entire procedure for Radiofrequency ablation for varicose veins in India .

Varicose Veins Laser Treatment in Bangalore

Endovenous laser ablation (EVLA) has been developed as an alternative to surgery of the great saphenous vein and short saphenous vein in an attempt to reduce morbidity and improve recovery time. › EVLA can be performed in an outpatient special procedure room in a hospital.

EVLA works by means of thermal destruction of venous tissues. Several wavelengths can be used: 810, 940, 980, 1,064, 1,320, 1,470, and 1,500 nm.

Heating decreases with tissue depth as absorption and scattering attenuate the incident beam.

Consequently, the laser beam must heat the vein wall and not the blood. › Before EVLA is performed, the vein lumen must be emptied of its blood by using leg elevation (Trendelenburg positioning), manual compression, and infiltration with perisaphenous subcutaneous tumescent saline solution.
