Saphenion®: Long Covid an Venenwänden

Saphenion®: Long Covid an Gefäßwänden – Gibt es diese aktuell häufiger in der Praxis anzutreffende Komplikation wirklich? Es liegt der Verdacht nahe – denn in den letzten 40 Monaten (5/22 – 9/25) haben wir in unserer im Rahmen der Patientengespräche auch immer durchgeführen Corona – Anamnese in mehreren Fällen diese Komplikation gesehen.
Saphenion®: Long Covid on leg vessel walls – does this complication, which is currently more common in practice, really exist? The suspicion is obvious – because in the last 40 months (5/22 – 9/25) we have seen this complication in several cases as part of our corona anamnesis, which we also always carried out as part of the patient consultations.

Saphenion®: Krampfadertherapie beim Lipödem

Saphenion®: Krampfadern beim Lipödem – welche Verfahren sollten empfohlen werden? Gibt es – wie in Werbeannoncen zu lesen – ein Zurück zum seit 119 Jahren durchgeführten radikalchirurgischen Herausziehen (Stripping)? Oder haben sich die modernen, seit nunmehr 25 Jahren im klinischen Einsatz befindlichen Katheterverfahren (Radiowelle, Venenkleber, Laser etc.) als bessere, effektivere, schonendere Alternative durchgesetzt?
Saphenion®: Varicose veins in lipoedema patients – which procedures should be recommended? Is there a return to the radical surgical stripping that has been carried out for 119 years – as has been the case several times recently in advertisements from clinics or also – advertised in specialist articles by surgical colleagues? Or have the modern catheter procedures (radio wave, venous glue, laser, etc.) that have been in clinical use for 25 years now established themselves as better, more effective, gentler alternatives?

Saphenion®: Kathetergestützte Therapie Baker-Zyste

Die Behandlung der Baker-Zyste kann entweder konservativ oder operativ erfolgen. Die konservative Therapie schließt eine antientzündliche medikamentöse Therapie (Ibuprofen, Diclofenac) und auch eine Punktion der Zyste ein. Bei der operativen Therapie wird in der Regel die gesamte Zyste über einen recht großen Hautschnitt in der Kniekehle freigelegt und an ihrer Wurzel (Kanal ins Kniegelenk) unterbunden und dann abgetrennt. Auf Grund der Radikalität des Eingriffs muss man nach der Operation mit den üblichen Komplikationen chirurgischer Eingriffe in sensiblen Regionen (Kniekehle) rechnen.
Die kathetergestützte bipolare Thermoablation (RFITT) der Baker – Zyste ist ein weltweit in nur wenigen Zentren im klinischen Einsatz befindliches Verfahren zur endozystischen minimalinvasiven Thermoablation von Kniegelenkzysten. Es wurde 2010 von SAPHENION in den klinischen Alltag eingeführt.

Baker’s cyst can be treated either conservatively or surgically. Conservative treatment includes anti-inflammatory medication (ibuprofen, diclofenac) and a puncture of the cyst. In surgical treatment, the entire cyst is usually exposed via a fairly large incision in the hollow of the knee and its root (canal into the knee joint) is cut off and then removed. Due to the radical nature of the procedure, the usual complications of surgical procedures in sensitive regions (popliteal fossa) must be expected after the operation.
Catheter-assisted bipolar thermal ablation (RFITT) of the Baker cyst is a procedure for endocystic minimally invasive thermal ablation of knee joint cysts that is in clinical use in only a few centers worldwide. It was introduced into everyday clinical practice by SAPHENION in 2010.

Since 2013, this guarantee has also been extended to the sealing therapy with super glue VenaSeal. In the event of recanalization, the patient does not have to pay the material costs for the catheter again. This is covered by the practice.

Saphenion®: Turning Time at Charité – Elite exchange

Saphenion®: Turning Time at Charitè – The Berlin Charité, Germany’s well-known hospital, was at the same time a center of research, teaching, and further education. It was part of the university, which was given the name Humboldt in GDR times. After the end of the GDR a considerable exchange of management personnel took place in the Charité, the media supplied the accompanying music with Stasi hysteria and scandal stories. The Charité, also in GDR times nationally and internationally a well-known university hospital, now seemed to have been a branch of the MfS and the Politbureau in public perception.
