Patient Finds Relief from Varicose Veins with VenaSeal Ablation at Kailash Hospital, Dehradun

Varicose veins are a common vascular condition that can significantly affect comfort, mobility, and quality of life if left untreated. Modern minimally invasive techniques now allow effective treatment with faster recovery and minimal discomfort.

At Kailash Hospital, Dehradun, a male patient suffering from symptomatic varicose veins received advanced care under the expertise of Dr.Vinayak Madhukar Jedhe, Consultant Interventional Radiologist, leading to excellent clinical outcomes and rapid recovery.

Presentation of Symptoms

The patient presented with persistent symptoms related to varicose veins, including:

• Prominent, bulging veins in the legs
• Heaviness and discomfort after prolonged standing
• Leg pain and fatigue
• Occasional swelling of the lower limbs
• Black discoloration of skin

These symptoms were interfering with daily activities and prompted him to seek specialized medical evaluation.

Diagnosis

After a detailed clinical examination and Doppler ultrasound evaluation, the patient was diagnosed with venous insufficiency leading to varicose veins. The imaging confirmed reflux in the affected veins, explaining the symptoms and indicating the need for interventional treatment.

Condition Overview

Varicose veins occur when valves in the leg veins fail to function properly, causing blood to pool and veins to enlarge. Over time, untreated varicose veins can lead to worsening pain, skin changes, ulcers, and an increased risk of complications.

Minimally invasive procedures such as VenaSeal ablation have transformed varicose vein management by offering effective vein closure without the need for surgical incisions, heat-based ablation, or prolonged downtime.

Treatment Plan

Based on the diagnosis and patient suitability, Dr.Vinayak Madhukar Jedhe recommended VenaSeal Ablation, a cutting-edge, minimally invasive procedure. The treatment plan included:

1. VenaSeal Ablation Procedure

• A medical adhesive was used to seal the affected vein
• The procedure was performed under imaging guidance
• No heat, tumescent anesthesia, or stitches were required

2. Minimally Invasive Approach

• Reduced procedural discomfort
• Minimal risk of complications
• Short procedure time with same-day discharge

The approach was tailored to ensure maximum comfort and effective vein closure.

3. Other Procedures for Varicose Veins

• Laser Ablation
• RF Ablation (RFA)
• Sclerotherapy 

Outcome and Follow-Up

The procedure was completed successfully, and the patient experienced immediate relief from symptoms. There was minimal post-procedure discomfort, and he was able to resume routine activities quickly.

Follow-up evaluations showed excellent vein closure and significant improvement in leg comfort and appearance. The patient expressed high satisfaction with the treatment outcome and appreciated the professional care and support provided by the medical and nursing teams.

Conclusion

This case highlights the effectiveness of VenaSeal ablation as a safe and advanced solution for varicose veins. With expert execution and modern technology, patients can achieve rapid recovery and lasting relief without the need for traditional surgery.
