This presentation by Dr. David L. Walrath focuses on venous aneurysms located at the saphenofemoral junction (SFJ). Defined as localized venous dilations that communicate with normal-sized segments, these aneurysms can lead to complications such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary emboli. The speaker explores histological characteristics, postoperative outcomes, and the effects of surgical techniques on recurrence rates. The presentation emphasizes evolving best practices in managing patients with these conditions, guided by recent research from the International Endovenous Laser Working Group.

  6. Venous Aneurysms at the SFJ Definition: A vein aneurysm is defined as an isolated zone of venous dilatation that communicates with a normal sized venous segment not associated with trauma or varicose veins. (1.5 x nl)

  7. Venous Aneurysms at the SFJ Histology: The walls are thinner, all three layers are present, but there is loss of small muscle and elastic fibers with an increase in fibrous connective tissue.

  8. Venous Aneurysms at the SFJ Superficial venous aneurysms can cause DVT and rarely pulmonary emboli especially if near the SFJ.

  9. Venous Aneurysms at the SFJ However, we also know that a groin incision is responsible for neovascularization and that neovascularization significantly increase the rate of recurrence.

  10. Venous Aneurysms at the SFJ In a recent phlebology article Dr. Ferreira stated that the International Endovenous laser working group (I.E.W.G.) does not recommend simultaneous crossectomy (ligation) in patients treated with EVLT except in cases of associated pathologies such as venous aneurysms.
