Aim of the study: Embolisation is a endovascular technique of vessels closure using embolisation material, which is applied into vessels throw catheter. As an embolisation material coils Gianturco-Wallace i Tornado (Cook) were used. Length and size of coils was determined individually during precedure.
Materials and methods: 38 patients of Vascular Surgery Department and Radiology Department of Medical University in Wroclaw were treated by endovascular embolisation of insufficient perforators. Procedures were made on 40 limbs with post-thrombotic complex and venous ulcers (6th degree of CEAP classification). 68 endovascular procedures were made, 143 metal coils were used.
Results: Using endovascular method 85% of ulcers were comletely cured.
Conclusions: Endovascular embolisation is safe and effective method of veonous ulcers curing. Itmay be used at outpatients clinic.
