BACKGROUND: Previously, subfascial ligation of perforator veins to treat venous ulceration in the lower extremities required long skin incisions through diseased skin and subcutaneous tissue. This was known as "the Linton operation." In 1985, Hauer described an endoscopic technique for ligating incompetent perforator veins; this seminal contribution marked the advent of subfascial endoscopic perforator surgery (SEPS).
METHODS: From 1996 to 1998, we prospectively collected data on 41 patients with chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) who underwent a SEPS procedure at our institution. Preoperative assessment consisted of color-flow duplex ultrasound scanning, as well as ascending and descending phlebography.
RESULTS: Some 45 SEPS procedures were performed on the 41 patients. Ages ranged from 42 to 84 years (mean, 60). Active venous ulcers were present in 37 legs; healing occurred within 9 weeks in 33 of them. No new ulcers developed in the follow-up period, a mean of 44 weeks.
CONCLUSION: The results suggest that the SEPS procedure incorporated into the overall treatment plan for patients with CVI produces active healing with a minimum of postoperative complications. The study demonstrates the safety and efficiency of this procedure; it also underscores the important role incompetent perforator veins have in the formation of venous ulcers.
