Vascular Surgery Center

Vascular surgeons (angiosurgeons) advise patients with pathology of the arterial, venous and lymphatic systems, treat vascular diseases, perform ultrasound examinations of arteries and deep and superficial veins, and advise on preventive or curative measures.

The primary diagnosis of leg blood vessels is a doctor’s examination and an ultrasound examination.

When should I consult a vascular surgeon?

To prevent the disease from progressing in time, it is recommended to contact those who experience the first symptoms of leg vein varicose veins:

• fatigue, heaviness or swelling in the legs
• leg cramps not only at night but also during the day,
• prominent superficial vascular network.

One of the biggest risk factors for leg vein dilation is standing or sitting, the risk is further increased by working or wearing high-heeled shoes.
Leg vein diseases can be caused by:

• heredity,
• overweight,
• improper, overly tight, or improperly sized clothing.

For the successful treatment of leg veins – the latest generation laser “Biolitec ELVeS”

Vein laser surgery is one of the most modern and safest methods for varicose vein treatment, in out clinic we use the newest generation varicose vein laser – Biolitec ELVeS Painless 1470 nm. Our laser in comparison to older generation varicose vein lasers decrease’s the chances of trauma to a minimum.

During the varicose vein laser removal surgery  there is a very slight chance of damaging nerves and lymphatic vessels. There are no visible scars of cosmetic defects after the surgery.

A minimally invasive technique is applied when treating varices of the saphenous veins with biolitec lasers.
The varices are located using ultrasound, and a local anesthetic is administered to the affected area.
Next, the optical fiber is introduced into the vein via a catheter and moved forward to the section to be treated.

In addition to the guiding beam, the fiber’s correct position is monitored by an ultrasound device.

The laser radiation is introduced in pulse mode and guided along the vein’s lumen by slowly and continuously retracting the fiber.

The transformation of the laser radiation to heat results in the thermal shrinkage and dissolution of tissue structure, which ultimately leads to the closure of the varicose veins by thrombosis and spasm.

Sclerotherapy

It is a method of treating varicose veins when the damaged blood vessel is treated internally with medication. Recently, almost half of patients in Western Europe and the United States are being treated in this way. This treatment takes longer, but thus avoids laser or surgical surgery.

Laser treatment is suitable in 90% of cases. Even in the most severe cases, after open sores in the legs, this treatment is very effective.
