Abstract
Feasibility of minimally invasive surgery with implementation of ERAS protocol versus traditional laparotomy in the management of early-stage endometrial cancer
Highlights
Perforators are those which connect the superficial and deep venous system either directly to main veins or indirectly through the muscular and soleal venous plexus
After obtaining approval from the ethics committee and informed consent, patients with lower limb varicosities of both genders were clinically examined and duplex examination was done. Those patients with isolated perforator incompetence of the lower limbs found by duplex examination were enrolled for this study
Isolated perforator incompetence as an independent factor for varicosities has been rarely studied, though it has been reported in various literatures to range between 2 % Lees TA, (2014) and 8.4 % Bergan JJ, (2012) of limbs with skin changes
Summary
Perforators are those which connect the superficial and deep venous system either directly to main veins or indirectly through the muscular and soleal venous plexus. The emergence of minimally invasive techniques like ambulatory phlebectomy and foam sclerotherapy has led to increasing interest about the appropriate therapy for the treatment of isolated perforator incompetence. There have been no studies which have compared the effectiveness of these in-office procedures in isolated perforator incompetence due to the low prevalence of cases. The primary goal of this study is to compare the clinical, functional, and duplex outcome in the management of leg varicosities having isolated primary perforator incompetence by ambulatory phlebectomy and duplex guided foam sclerotherapy
