| Popis: | In the available literature, we have found no comparative data on the efficiency and safety of endovenous laser ablation (EVLA) and traditional phlebectomy in elderly and senile patients. According to our results, in elderly and senile patients, the pain syndrome is much less pronounced after EVLA as compared with phlebectomy, the frequency of ecchymosis with an area of more than 100 cm2 and distal thrombosis of deep veins is lower. In the analyzed groups, there are no significant differences in the frequency of post-surgical complications after surgical intervention. Both EVLA and phlebectomy eliminate pathological reflux of the great saphenous vein with the same degree of reliability, within the period of examination of 1 year. In elderly and senile patients, the time for return to daily activity is significantly reduced after EVLA as compared to that after combined phlebectomy. |
