Subfascial Ligation For Varicose Veins
Subfascial ligation is a surgical procedure used to treat varicose veins, which are enlarged, twisted, and often painful veins that can occur in the legs. The condition can be caused by a variety of factors such as genetics, pregnancy, and prolonged standing.
During the procedure, the surgeon makes small incisions in the skin, and then uses specialized instruments to locate and tie off the varicose veins. This stops the blood from flowing through the varicose vein and redirects it to healthy veins. The procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia, and it may take several hours to complete.
Subfascial ligation is considered a safe and effective treatment for varicose veins, and it can be used alone or in combination with other treatments such as compression stockings or endovenous thermal ablation.
It's important to note that subfascial ligation may have potential risks such as bleeding, infection, and allergic reactions. It is important to consult with a qualified healthcare professional to determine the best treatment option for your individual needs and goals. Recovery time can vary depending on the extent of the surgery, but patients can expect to wear compression stockings for a period of time after the procedure to help prevent the formation of new varicose veins or recurrence.
It is recommended that the patient will be evaluated for underlying venous reflux disease before the procedure, and that a follow up appointment will be scheduled after the procedure to evaluate the results.
