CHIVA to spare the small and great saphenous veins after wrong-site surgery on a normal saphenous vein: a case report

Abstract: CHIVA (Cure Conservatrice et Hemodynamique de l’Insufficience Veineuse en Ambulatoire) is a type of operation for varicose veins that avoids destroying the saphenous vein and collaterals. We report a case of CHIVA treatment of two saphenous veins to spare these veins. The patient previously had a normal great saphenous vein stripped in error in a wrong-site surgery, while two saphenous veins that did have reflux were not operated. The patient was symptomatic and we performed a CHIVA operation on the left great… Show more

“…In terms of superficial venous reflux velocity, it is also confirmed once again that CHIVA can retain the advantage of perforating veins and better improve the positive blood flow of lower extremity veins. [27,28] In this meta-analysis, CHIVA technology showed some advantages in the incidence of complications. The overall incidence of complications of CHIVA was lower than that of HLS, and the incidence of DVT, postoperative sensory disturbance, hematoma and ecchymosis was lower than that of HLS.…”

“…CHIVA is ambulatory conservative hemodynamic management of varicose veins that preserves deliberately the saphenous vein and collaterals based on venous hemodynamics[ 22 ]. CHIVA is an office-based treatment for varicose veins performed under local anesthesia.…”
