A Case of Refractory Stasis Skin Ulcer Successfully Treated by Retrograde Trans passing PAPs

Abstract

　A 55 year old female patient visited our hospital complaining of bleeding from stasis skin ulcers on both legs. She was diagnosed of C6 Ep, As, Pr on CEAP classification. Despite of prior compression therapy for more than 15ears, her static dermatitis had not improved because of her poor compliance with that treatment. She underwent endovenous laser ablation (EVLA), and retrograde transpassing percutaneous ablation of perforators (rtPAPs). As an alternative PAPs procedure, we report a simple method applying the EVLA procedure to control venous stasis with good ulcer ameliorating effect.
