A randomized controlled noninferiority trial comparing radiofrequency with stripping and CHIVA technique for insufficiency of the great saphenous vein.

Journal of Vascular Surgery: Venous and Lymphatic Disorders, 2020
OBJECTIVE The quality of available evidence regarding new minimally invasive techniques to abolish great saphenous vein reflux is moderate. This study aimed to assess whether radiofrequency ablation (RFA) was noninferior to each of the stripping (HL/S ...

The ostial valve of the great saphenous vein

Phlebology: The Journal of Venous Disease, 2011
Background Venous valves have been classified into parietal (PVs) and ostial valves (OVs). PVs are located within the lumen of veins, whereas the OVs are located directly at the confluence of two veins. In the common femoral vein (CFV), the most prominent PVs are the suprasaphenic and infrasaphenic valve.

Anterior accessory saphenous vein confluence anatomy at the sapheno-femoral junction as risk factor for varicose veins recurrence after great saphenous vein radio-thermal-ablation.

International Angiology, 2020
BACKGROUND Varicose veins recurrence rate remained almost unchanged despite the constant technological advancement in its treatment. The aim of this study is to evaluate the variable accessory saphenous vein (ASV) anatomy at the sapheno-femoral junction (

Catheter-directed foam sclerotherapy with tumescence of the great saphenous vein versus ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy: A randomized controlled trial

Phlebology, 2020
Objectives To compare the effectiveness of two foam sclerotherapy techniques of the great saphenous vein. Methods Fifty subjects with varicose veins, edema, and great saphenous vein incompetence (diameter 6–10 mm) were randomly categorized into two equal

Interventions for great saphenous vein insufficiency: A systematic review and network meta-analysis

Vascular
Background Great saphenous vein insufficiency (GSVI) adversely affects the quality of life of affected individuals. Minimally invasive endo-venous ablation techniques have emerged as effective and safe treatments, despite the longstanding use of surgical

The Impact of Endovenous Ablation Assessment Based on Great Saphenous Vein Size, Gender, Clinical Severity, and Patient Reported Outcomes.

Journal of Vascular Surgery: Venous and Lymphatic Disorders, 2020
OBJECTIVE Policies of insurance carriers have used truncal vein size as a criteria for coverage. The objective of this study was to compare the effect of great saphenous vein (GSV) size > 5 mm versus < 5 mm on patient presentation and clinical outcomes.
