Application of Endovenous Laser Treatment Combined with Foam Sclerotherapy for the Minimally Invasive Treatment of Great Saphenous Vein Varicosity

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of endovenous laser treatment (EVLT) combined with foam sclerotherapy (FS) in the treatment of great saphenous vein varicosity (GSVV). Methods: A total of 50 patients with GSVV, treated between March 2021 and March 2024, were selected and randomly divided into two groups using a random number table. The combination group (25 cases) underwent EVLT combined with FS, while the conventional group (25 cases) underwent EVLT alone. The total effective rate, complication rate, disease severity score, and serological indicators were compared between the two groups. Results: The total effective rate in the combination group was higher, and the complication rate was lower compared to the conventional group (P < 0.05). One week after surgery, the disease severity score in the combination group was lower, coagulation function indicators were better, and inflammatory factor levels were lower compared to the conventional group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: EVLT combined with FS can improve the clinical efficacy in GSVV patients, prevent postoperative complications, reduce disease severity, protect patients’ coagulation function, and alleviate postoperative inflammatory responses, showing significant advantages in combined surgery.
