Probabilidade de refluxo nas veias safenas de mulheres com diferentes graus de insuficiência venosa crônica

Abstract: CONTEXTO: A presença de refluxo nas junções safeno-femoral e safeno-poplítea é um dado importante para programação da cirurgia de varizes. Estudos mostraram que, na maioria dos pacientes com insuficiência venosa crônica, as junções estão competentes, e o refluxo está presente ao longo do trajeto das veias safenas. OBJETIVOS: Identificar probabilidade de diferentes padrões de refluxo nas veias safenas de mulheres com vários graus de insuficiência venosa crônica e avaliar se o comprometimento das junções das saf… Show more

“…15,16 The level of energy absorbed is extremely important, since the vessel will only retract once it reaches a certain level and, if this is not achieved, the vein may remain open or recanalize. [17][18][19] Conversely, an excessive amount of energy could injure adjacent tissues, such as nerves and lymph vessels. LEED is one of the most prominant variables during the procedure, and some studies have correlated energy density with favorable or unfavorable results.…”

“…In our study, the most common reflux pattern in the SSV was the distal type, followed by proximal reflux and segmental reflux, demonstrating a difference in comparison to the patterns identified in women (CEAP 2), among whom the segmental reflux pattern predominated, followed by the distal and proximal reflux patterns. 12 Cassou et al 13 identified the probability of different reflux patterns in the saphenous veins of women at different clinical stages of CVI, finding that 157 out of 288 GSVs (54.51%) in extremities classified as CEAP C1 did not have reflux, while 87 (30.21%) of them had segmental reflux. In turn, 214 (35.97%), 104 (38.10%) and nine (42.86%) GSVs in extremities classified as CEAP C2, C3, and C4 respectively had segmental reflux.…”

“…In C4, C5, and C6 limbs the distal and proximal patterns had the highest incidence rates, all with the same percentage (33.33%), and these patterns were not observed in the female population. 13 Labropoulos et al 16 compared venous reflux and clinical manifestations of CVI in 255 lower limbs from 217 patients and while they did not use exact definitions of different reflux patterns, they did report whether or not reflux involved the SFJ and labeled reflux as suprapatellar or infrapatellar. These authors found an association between occurrence of infrapatellar reflux and presence of clinical signs of more advanced CVI.…”
