Each serious and reliable healthcare institution that professionally deals with treatment of veins – phlebology – has to master all available methods and procedures – meaning, it has to choose the best and most acceptable method for every patient.
Therefore, the fundamental motto of Polyclinic Lege Artis should be herein repeated: Each leg has its own story. We approach every patient in a special, individual way: after the diagnostics, we choose adequate treatment procedure, which is very often a collection of different methods.
Treatment – removing the varicose veins – is not performed due to aesthetic reasons, but because of complications which inevitably occur; some can be hazardous for one’s health. It is, therefore, important to know that serious complications can be avoided if the treatment is approached to as early as possible; in that way, irreversible changes in the vascular system of legs – damage that cannot be repaired – can be avoided.
Complications
- Thrombophlebitis – inflammation of the superficial veins
- Phlebothrombosis (Deep vein thrombosis, DVT)
- Ulcus cruris
