Venous aneurysms (VA) are often underestimated as a dangerous vascular condition that can lead to fatal complications. We have adopted a more aggressive surgical approach to treatment of venous aneurysms that seems to be safe and effective, and report herein the results of this approach.
A retrospective analysis of patients presented with VA between January 2013, and January 2018.
We identified 13 VA in 13 patients. The mean patient age was 21.6 years (range, 7-42 years). Six patients were male (46.2%) and seven were female (53.8%). All patients presented with swellings in different areas, mostly in the neck (nine patients [69.2%]). Two patients had a short saphenous vein aneurysm complicated with paresthesia (15.3%). All patients underwent surgical correction. Tangential excision was done for noncomplicated saccular aneurysms (six patients [46.2%]), whereas ligation and excision were done for fusiform aneurysms (five patients) and two saccular aneurysms presenting with thrombosis (53.8%). No signification complications were noted.
Surgical treatment of venous aneurysms is safe and may help to avoid possible pulmonary embolism.
静脉瘤(venous aneurysms,VA)常被低估为一种危险的血管疾病,可导致致命的并发症。我们采用了更为积极的手术方法来治疗静脉瘤,这种方法似乎是安全有效的,在此报告该方法的结果。
回顾性分析了 2013 年 1 月至 2018 年 1 月期间就诊的静脉瘤患者。
我们共发现 13 例静脉瘤患者,平均年龄为 21.6 岁(范围:7-42 岁)。其中 6 例为男性(46.2%),7 例为女性(53.8%)。所有患者均表现为不同部位的肿胀,主要位于颈部(9 例[69.2%])。2 例患者存在单纯性大隐静脉瘤合并感觉异常(15.3%)。所有患者均接受了手术矫正。非复杂囊状动脉瘤行切线切除术(6 例[46.2%]),梭形动脉瘤和 2 例合并血栓形成的囊状动脉瘤行结扎切除术(53.8%)。无明显并发症发生。
静脉瘤的手术治疗是安全的,可有助于避免可能的肺栓塞。
