Abstract

Isolated saphenofemoral junction incompetence is a clinical entity encountered most often in young cases and led to irritating symptoms mainly such as pain and swelling in related extremities. The symptoms can be reduced and the recurrence can be avoided by implanting valvular stents made of dacron reinforced silicon on the terminal valve in this region. Significant reflux in saphenofemoral junction was observed in three symptomatic cases in their twenties through venous doppler ultrasonography. They were staged by using venous classification systems, and external valvular stents were implanted to the saphenofemoral junctions of the cases. In all of the cases, an obvious clinical recovery was realized in the early postoperative period and the symptoms disappeared. During the control visit in 6th month, the cases were evaluated as asymptomatic, and there was no pathology in the venous doppler ultrasonography. Then, all of the cases were reevaluated by using same venous classification systems and downstaging was observed. As a result, external valvular stent implantation which is less invasive compared to other methods may provide an effective reconstruction in the existence of isolated valvular incompetence and reflux in saphenofemoral junction.

Özet

İzole safenofemoral bileşke yetmezliği özellikle genç olgularda sık olarak karşılaşılan ve ilgili alt ekstremitelerde başta ağrı ve ödem olmak üzere rahatsız edici semptomlara neden olabilen klinik bir antitedir. Bu bölgedeki terminal kapakçık üzerine implante edilen silikon ile kuvvetlendirilmiş dacrondan oluşan valvüler stentlerin uygulanması ile semptomlar azaltılabilir ve nüks önlenebilir. Yirmili yaşlardaki semptomatik üç olguda venöz doppler ultrasonografi ile safenofemoral bileşke seviyesinde anlamlı reflü tespit edilmiş, venöz sınıflama sistemleri kullanılarak değerlendirilmiş ve olguların safenofemoral bileşkelerine eksternal valvüler stent implantasyonu yapılmıştır. Olguların tümünde erken postoperatif dönemde aşikâr klinik iyileşme oluşmuş ve semptomlar kaybolmuştur. Altıncı ay kontrolünde olgular asemptomatik olarak değerlendirilmiş ve yapılan venöz doppler ultrasonografilerinde patolojiye rastlanmamıştır. Bu dönemde aynı venöz sınıflama sistemleri ile tekrar değerlendirilmiş ve tüm olguların evre ve skorlarında gerileme tespit edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak, safenofemoral bileşke bölgesindeki izole kapak yetmezliği ve reflü mevcudiyetinde diğer metotlara nazaran daha az invaziv olan eksternal valvüler stent implantasyonu ile etkili rekonstrüksiyon sağlanabilmektedir.
