OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate a new neovalve construction technique in postthrombotic syndrome. The surgical procedure is described, and preliminary results of the first case series are given.
METHODS: From December 2000 to June 2004, neovalve construction in 18 limbs was performed on 16 patients (8 male and 8 female; median age, 55.5 years; range, 34-79 years) to treat severe chronic venous insufficiency in cases of postthrombotic syndrome. Surgical treatment was recommended in cases of nonhealing or recurrent ulcers (CEAP classification class C6). Preoperative duplex scanning, ascending/descending venography, and air plethysmography were routinely performed. Valvular cusps were created by dissecting the thickened venous wall to obtain material with which to fashion a new monocuspid or bicuspid valve. Mean follow-up was 22 months (range, 1-42 months). Postoperative duplex scanning and air plethysmography were performed in all patients. Descending venography was performed after surgery in 15 limbs.
RESULTS: In 16 lower extremities (89%), the ulcer healed within 4 to 25 weeks (median, 12 weeks), and no recurrences occurred. Neovalve competence was confirmed in 17 cases (95%). Postoperative duplex scan and air plethysmography showed a significant improvement in hemodynamic parameters (P < .001), especially in younger patients with good muscle pump function. In 17 limbs (95%), the treated segments remained primarily patent at median follow-up of 22 months. Early thrombosis below the neovalve site occurred in two patients (12%). No perioperative pulmonary embolism was observed. A late occlusion occurred in one patient (6%), 8 months after surgery. Minor postoperative complications occurred in three patients (17%).
CONCLUSIONS: Neovalve construction seems to be effective in restoring femoral competence in postthrombotic reflux. Although these preliminary results are encouraging, long-term follow-up and a larger series are required to validate the technique.
