Endoscopic Vein Harvest: A Debate Over Outcomes
Harvesting veins for bypass using minimally invasive endoscopic technique vs. open surgery has become a routine choice for vascular surgeons, but controversy remains regarding the efficacy of the procedure. Dr. Peter Gloviczki, Director of the Gonda Vascular Center at the Mayo Clinic (Rochester, MN), advocates for the endoscopic technique, citing rapidly improving and money-saving technologies as well as studies showing improved wound healing and vein function. However, Dr. Thomas E. Brothers, Program Director in Surgery at the Medical University of South Carolina (Charleston), has recently completed a ten-year retrospective study finding significantly better outcomes for open surgery. Today at the 33rd annual VEITHsymposium™, these distinguished vascular surgeons debated whether the drawbacks to endoscopic vein harvest were outweighed by the advantages. 2006-11-17
Foam Sclerotherapy Debate: Is it the Ultimate Treatment for Varicose Veins
Today at the 33rd annual VEITHsymposium™, experts will debate whether foam sclerotherapy is powerful and effective enough to replace open surgery and endovascular ablation as the treatment of choice for varicose veins. Foam sclerotherapy uses an ultrasound-guided sclerosant to seal off varicose veins in order to stop the swelling, itchiness, and pain that they typically cause. Dr. John Bergan, Professor of Surgery, University of California, San Diego School of Medicine (La Jolla, CA), asserted several compelling reasons why foam sclerotherapy is the best choice: ease and efficacy of treatment and follow-up, low procedure cost, and increased patient comfort. 2006-11-17
Endovascular Aneurysm Repair for High-Risk Patients: Weighing Controversial EVAR 2 Evidence
Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) was developed to address the needs of high-risk aortic aneurysm patients found unfit to undergo open surgery. To study its effectiveness, the Health Technology Assessment program (a branch of the United Kingdom's National Health Service) commissioned wide-ranging EVAR 1 and 2 trials. Although EVAR 1 showed that endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms provided a 3% mortality benefit, EVAR 2 showed that for high-risk patients there was no demonstrable mortality benefit, and further that 7% of patients died within 30 days of the procedure. Today at the 33rd annual VEITHsymposium™, renowned vascular surgeons discussed the implications of these findings, in the process raising serious questions about the methodology and findings of EVAR 2. 2006-11-17
