excellent lecture, simple, honest, straightforward!
Man I was wondering if Dr. Bush is still practicing right now. She knows what is going on with venous reflux!! I would go to her tomorrow!! I need to find one of these doctors here in Houston.
I work at a vein center in Abilene, TX. We do not have any pictures of “perfect” legs. We have tons of lipodermatosclerotic legs with ulcers. We do cosmetic injections occasionally. We have been doing Venaseal for over a year now and it’s wonderful, especially for the patient. No tumescent, and they don’t have to wear compression afterwards. Great video!!
Is venaseal safe long term? What happens if the glue stops holding does the blood take it through the deep system?? I want to take care of this vein in my leg but I'm worried about procedures and having complications. I was thinking about getting it. Until I heard a lady died right after procedure from clot pulmonary embolism
All the studies have shown it doesn’t break down over time. It is a medical grade adhesive, we’ve been using it forever. Blood clots are a risk with any vein procedure unfortunately, but the risk is much lower with Venaseal compared to other procedures. The lady you are speaking of may have developed a clot that wasn’t related to the Venaseal. If she was immobile for a period of time, that increases your risk for clots. Hope this helps, I hope you can get your veins taken care of.
So much information. I am having a procedure done in about two weeks, not sure about the procedure but I am nervous. I had mine stripped 13 years ago and had a stroke. I had a hole in my heart but have had it repaired.
The physician I work with calls vein stripping “barbaric”. the way we do it now is so much better and more effective. There are some complications, but much lower risk than stripping. Hope it goes well for you!
Vein stripping is outdated and no longer carried out in the UK.
Nice 👍
Is reflux in common femoral vein a manifestation of overflow from gsv reflux? Do u think its secondary reflux and not the primary cause. Will treating superficial reflux abolish femoral?
If every incompetent vein has been identified, then every vein needs appropriate procedure to close them off. One important thing is to also have any incompetent perforators identified and also treated. Many vase specialists fail to do this because most are incapable of working on these perforator veins. I have had mine treated in 2018 at the Whiteley Clinic in London and haven’t looked back since.
good
