This is a well-established procedure that dates back at least 50 years. It is an invasive procedure that involves entering the thoracic or abdominal cavity and requires general anesthesia. The aneurysmal part of the aorta is resected and changed with an artificial tube graft. This procedure takes about 2-4 hours, and the patient stays in the hospital for about a week. Recovery time is several weeks to months.

Aortic aneurysm surgery remains a vital option for many patients. Following surgery, patients undergo intensive monitoring to ensure the success of the repair and prevent complications. Post-operative care includes managing pain, monitoring blood pressure, and preventing infections.

Treatment for chronic venous insufficiency includes compression stockings and compression devices with intermittent pneumatic compression. Patients also get symptomatic relief from leg elevation. A venous insufficiency specialist will often recommend such conservative treatments initially.

Venous Insufficiency Surgery

For patients with severe or chronic venous insufficiency, venous insufficiency surgery is often a long-term solution that can prevent further complications such as leg ulcers or blood clots. By consulting a venous insufficiency specialist, you can explore options such as sclerotherapy, radiofrequency ablation, or more invasive surgeries, depending on your condition’s severity. Early intervention by a venous doctor ensures that the condition is managed effectively, preventing the need for more aggressive treatments. Depending on individual needs, surgical treatments like ligation and stripping, microincision/ambulatory phlebectomy, Subfascial Endoscopic Perforator Surgery (SEPS), and vein bypass are also considered.

Ligation and Stripping: This procedure involves tying off (ligation) and removing (stripping) damaged veins, preventing blood from pooling and improving circulation.

Microincision/Ambulatory Phlebectomy: A minimally invasive surgery where small incisions remove varicose veins close to the skin’s surface.

Subfascial Endoscopic Perforator Surgery (SEPS): This endoscopic procedure targets perforator veins, reducing pressure on the superficial veins and preventing further complications.

Vein Bypass: In severe cases, a healthy vein bypasses a blocked or damaged vein, allowing for improved blood flow.
