Infective thrombophlebitis after great saphenous vein cyanoacrylate embolization
The use of cyanoacrylate embolization has increased in interest as a safe, effective, and minimally invasive method to treat symptomatic saphenous reflux. The procedure is generally well tolerated by patients, and complications such as phlebitis are minor and usually self-limiting. Postprocedural in...

description | The use of cyanoacrylate embolization has increased in interest as a safe, effective, and minimally invasive method to treat symptomatic saphenous reflux. The procedure is generally well tolerated by patients, and complications such as phlebitis are minor and usually self-limiting. Postprocedural infections have been described but occur infrequently and usually in the early postoperative course. In the present case report, we have described a late-onset infective thrombophlebitis of the great saphenous vein after cyanoacrylate embolization, requiring surgical excision of the treated vein. |
