Event Description
|
A venaseal closure system was used for treatment of the great saphenous vein (gsv) and the short saphenous vein (ssv) on the (b)(6) 2023.Mthe ssv was inserted from the peripheral side/ankle, and the catheter insertion length was over 40cm. the next day the patient was scheduled to be discharged, but due to swelling of the right lower extremity the patient was not and a ct and mri examination were performed. imaging data showed a glue-like obstruction in the femoral vein (about 10-15cm central side from spj). diagnosed as severe stenosis (approximately 70%), and direct oral anticoagulants (doac) treatment was performed without discharging the patient.On the (b)(6) 2023 swelling and swelling symptoms did not improve despite doac treatment, and surgery was performed to remove the obstruction in the femoral vein. an approximately 15cm incision was made in the lower leg near the target vein, and the femoral vein was exposed. the central/peripheral side of the occluded vein was clamped with a kanshi, blood flow was blocked, vein incision was made, and glue was checked. the glue was removed from the vein wall over an approximately 20cm section. after removal, a thrombus was observed distally with embolized glue. swelling and swelling symptoms improved to the point that they were no longer a problem, and as of (b)(6) 2023, it was being followed continuously with doac treatment on an outpatient basis. from the length of insertion, it was believed that it was probably a technical error where the glue was injected into the femoral vein.
