Subfascial Ligation For Perforators
Subfascial ligation is a surgical procedure used to treat incompetent perforator veins, which are abnormal veins that allow blood to flow in the wrong direction. This can cause swelling, pain, and skin changes in the lower legs.
During the procedure, the surgeon makes small incisions in the skin, and then uses specialized instruments to locate and tie off the abnormal perforator veins. This stops the blood from flowing through the abnormal 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 incompetent perforator 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.
