Saphenion®: Allergie auf Venenkleber? In einigen wenigen Fachkommentaren, Vorträgen und Artikeln von venenchirurgisch tätigen Kollegen wird immer wieder vor der Entstehung einer Allergie auf den beim Venenkleber verwendeten Cyanoacrylates gewarnt.
In a few specialist comments, presentations, and articles by phlebological active colleagues is repeatedly warned against the emergence of an allergy to the cyanoacrylate used in the vein glue.
Saphenion®: long-time results of vein glue – has been published by us in regular succession for 10 years and aims to compare international publications on the subject with our own experiences and to remain meaningful. Our patients are now very well informed about this therapy method for varicose veins, which has been offered for 13 years.
After 152 months of use, we have so far treated 2215 patients on 4642 saphenous veins – over 1,1 Mio. patients worldwide have now been treated with the vein glue VenaSeal®. In the meantime, we have successfully used the vein glue VenaSeal® to clean the vein system in 67 patients with COVID-19 infection after they have recovered, and have treated 75 patients with ulcera crures of legs successfully.
Saphenion®: Venenkleber bei Krampfadern – wie geht es?
Wir haben dazu einen kleinen Film gedreht – mit ein wenig Spaß und Augenzwinkern aber ganz ernsthaftem Hintergrund.

Saphenion®: Erst Venenkleber, dann Zeitungen ausgetragen – Man glaubt es kaum, und es war auch uns völlig neu. Unsere Patientin wurde simultan an drei Stammkrampfadern mittels des Venenklebers operiert und fuhr nach der OP und daran anschließender Vacuum-Kompressions – und SMT – Therapie unmittelbar mit dem eigenen Fahrrad los, um Zeitungen aus zu tragen.
First vein glue, then newspaper delivery? It’s hard to believe, and it was also completely new to us. Our patient underwent simultaneous surgery on three truncal varicose veins using the vein adhesive and immediately after the operation and subsequent vacuum compression and SMT therapy, she set off on her own bike to deliver newspapers.
Saphenion®: Therapie Fremdkörperreaktion Venenkleber – Unsere Praxis begann als dritte Praxis in Deutschland, nach Prof. Pröbstle in Mannheim und Dr. Alm in Hamburg, ab 1.8.2012 mit der Therapie von Stammkrampfadern mit dem Venenkleber „VenaSeal“.
Als vordergründige Nebenwirkung des Verfahrens traten in den ersten 2 Jahren vermehrt Gefäßentzündungen auf – zunächst als Allergien angesehen – inzwischen aber als Fremdkörperreaktion definiert.
Saphenion®: Foreign body reaction vein glue therapy – Our practice was the third practice in Germany, after Prof. Pröbstle in Mannheim and Dr. Alm in Hamburg, to start treating truncal varicose veins with the vein glue “VenaSeal” on August 1, 2012.
The primary side effect of the procedure in the first two years was an increase in vascular inflammation – initially regarded as allergies – but now defined as a foreign body reaction.
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.
