Saphenion®: 121 Monate Klebender Mikroschaum

Saphenion®: 121 Monate Klebender Mikroschaum – es wird die Weiterentwicklung der Mikroschaumtherapie beschrieben. Klebender Mikroschaum ist eine Modifikation des zur Verödungstherapie allgemein eingesetzten Ethoxisklerol – Mikroschaums. Mit dem Erfolg des Venenklebers lag die Idee nah, den Mikroschaum weiter zu entwickeln. Veröden und Kleben simultan ist eine der möglichen Variationen.
Saphenion®: 121 Months Sealing Microfoam – the further development of microfoam therapy is described. Adhesive microfoam is a modification of the ethoxisclerol microfoam generally used for sclerotherapy. With the success of the vein glue, the idea of further developing the microfoam was obvious. Simultaneous sclerotherapy and gluing is one of the possible variations.

Saphenion®: Memories of Sauerbruch

And the idea grew in us to do a little historical work on the subject of minimally invasive varicose vein therapy, and so we began with the necessary research in the specialist literature. So we were all the more surprised when we discovered that the idea of ​​gluing wasn’t all that new. And now PD Lahl told – rather casually – that until 1968 he had also worked with glucose solutions. This is exactly what we found in our research and this is exactly what led us back to Ferdinand Sauerbruch. Admittedly, it was more of a coincidence, and admittedly, a very small star in the big sky of surgery, but still very interesting and belonging to the present day.

Saphenion®: Neue Therapieoption

Das RFITT – Verfahren (Radiofrequenzinduzierte Thermotherapie) der ersten und zweiten Generation haben wir seit 2007 an 2800 Stammkrampfadern eingesetzt. Darüber hinaus haben wir dieses System erfolgreich bei der Behandlung von Kniegelenkzysten (sog. Bakerzysten eingeführt.
Das bipolare RFITT Precision System findet auch Anwendung bei: Tumorablation (Leber, Lunge, Niere, Prostata, Brust), Schilddrüse (kalte/ heiße Knoten), Facettengelenksdenervationen und der Therapie des Nasensegels (HNO).

Saphenion®: Vein glue versus radiofrequency therapy – 7 years comparison

Vein glue versus radiofrequency therapy – 7 years: For more than 20 years now, truncal varicose veins has increasingly been treated endovenously with catheter support. It all began with the rather cumbersome VNUS® Closure process and the easier-to-use linear laser. This was followed in 2006/2007 by the bipolar RFITT® catheter and the VNUS® ClosureFast system as well as the radial laser. However, it should be said that following historical medical truth, endovenous sclerotherapy has been developed and used since 1911. And already in the late 20s, many surgeons in Germany used the gluing technique with sugar solutions. Also, Ferdinand Sauerbruch of the Charitè hospital in Berlin was a friend of this method.

Saphenion®: 20 Jahre RFITT-Radiowellenkatheter

Saphenion®: 20 Jahre RFITT-Radiowellenkatheter In der Krampfadertherapie – und seit 2008 auch bei der Therapie der Bakerzyste von Kniegelenken im Einsatz: Die in Deutschland von den Krankenkassen immer noch als einzige schulmedizinische Therapiemethode betrachtete radikalchirurgische Stripping-OP hat sich zwar in den letzten Jahren operationstechnisch und instrumentell verbessert, bleibt aber ungeachtet dessen immer eine radikale OP-Methode mit all ihren Nachteilen und Nebenwirkungen. Bereits seit 1906 – also über 119 Jahre – wird diese Methode eingesetzt.

Saphenion®: 20 years of RFITT radio wave catheters In varicose vein therapy – and since 2008 also used in the treatment of Baker’s cysts in knee joints: although the radical surgical stripping procedure, which is still considered the only conventional treatment method by health insurance companies in Germany, has improved in terms of surgical techniques and instruments in recent years, it still remains a radical surgical method with all its disadvantages and side effects. This method has been used since 1906 – 119 years ago.

Saphenion®: 7 years experience in sealing veins

Since 8/2012 we use the vein glue at Saphenion. First use parallel to radiofrequency therapy. Meanwhile, more than 95% of our patients choose the glue for the treatment of truncal varicose veins.In the meantime, technical indications have broadened the indications. Now we are treating for recurrent episodes, venous tumors, vein ectasies and aneurysms as well as perforating veins.
