Monocusp implantation reliably resolved patient symptoms when unusable CFV valves were encountered. Postoperative CFV reflux is usually undetectable. The monocusp valve exhibits minimal thrombogenicity related to its viability with attendant antithrombotic hormone production capacity and has markedly improved the patient's quality of life. Full thickness monocusp surgery could become widespread with the difficult dysplastic/aplastic CVI patient subset because of its simplicity, repeatability, durability, low complication rate, effectiveness, persistent availability and viability providing nitric oxide synthase and thymomodulin hormone production capacity. The full thickness of vein wall has distinct advantages over other partial thickness valve creation methods because of its long-term vitality. Postoperative coumadin is recommended for six months to minimize risks of deep vein thrombosis and/or pulmonary embolism.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
