Abstract
|
|
|
|
Cryosclerosis was developed at the end of the last decade. It is the endovenous cryoablation of the great saphenous vein and has been forgotten before the era of the endovenous ablation techniques began. The caused histomorphological changes of the vein weren’t described before, especially, years after the procedure. A 31-year-old female patient underwent cryosclerosis 2 years ago. Because of the recanalization of the great saphenous vein and recurrent varicosity, high ligation, cryostripping and phlebectomy of varices were performed. During surgery, a saphenous vein piece was harvested to investigate the histomorphological effect of cryosclerosis. Histological findings verified that recanalization had occurred, the vein wall had undergone remodeling, and the picro-sirius red stain showed collagen deposition in the whole vein wall. Cryosclerosis seems to result in the remodeling of the vein wall.
