Filter by:To evaluate whether oral supplementation with Pycnogenol (Flebon®) can interfere with skin hyperpigmentation after polidocanol foam sclerotherapy in patients with mild to moderate chronic venous insufficiency (CEAP C2 and C3) compared with the use of Placebo.
Acute esophageal variceal bleeding (AEVB) is a serious complication of cirrhosis, with high morbidity and mortality. The latest European recommendations(1) recommend the early implementation, within 72 hours following esophageal variceal bleeding, of a transhepatic porto-systemic shunt set up by transjugular route (TIPS) called "early TIPS" in patients at high risk of recurrence, i.e. Child C<14 or Child B with active bleeding at the time of endoscopy. The implementation of early TIPS appears to improve survival without transplantation in these patients, although the benefit among Child B patients without active bleeding has yet to be demonstrated. Renal failure is a determining factor in the prognosis of the cirrhotic patient. For patients with refractory ascites, or type 2 hepato-renal syndrome (i.e. chronic renal failure related to portal hypertension), the use of TIPS is recommended. Although a few studies with low levels of evidence have reported a benefit in the placement of TIPS in hepato-renal syndrome type 1 (i.e. acute renal failure related to portal hypertension), the European recommendations do not recommend the use of TIPS in this context due to lack of studies on the subject. Some studies have shown an improvement in renal function after performing TIPS in refractory ascites. To date, no studies have evaluated the impact of the implementation of early-TIPS on renal function in intensive care patients. The investigators would like to evaluate the impact on survival without liver transplantation on D28 of the implementation of early-TIPS in cirrhotic patients with AEVB requiring ICU hospitalization, compared to standard treatment (medical and endoscopic).
The aim of this pilot study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of combined and simultaneous endoscopic variceal obliteration together with balloon occluded-retrograde transvenous obliteration (B-RTO) for the treatment of high-risk gastric varices
The investigators establish a randomized controlled clinical trial, comparing the efficacy and prognosis of GVL and GVO in secondary prevention of GVs, especially in patients with portosystemic shunting, and exploring the endoscopic treatment selection of different types of GVs. Outcome expectations: Compared with glue injection, endoscopic ligation for secondary prevention of gastric varices is safe and effective, especially in patients with portosystemic shunting.
In this prospective, observational study, the investigators aim to investigate the symptoms of varicose vein patients.
The aim of this randomised case-controlled trial is to investigate whether ablation of incompetent perforating vein in addition to ablation of truncal vein reduces the rate of recurrent varicose veins post-treatment compared with patients who only have ablation of the truncal vein, who are left with untreated incompetent perforating veins.
The aim of this study is to identify whether the treatment of pelvic venous reflux (pelvic embolisation) in females with recurrent leg varicose veins, who have a proven contribution to their leg varicose veins from pelvic venous reflux, have a reduction in future recurrence after endovenous laser treatment for recurrent varicose veins in the legs.
The aim of this study is to identify whether the treatment of pelvic venous reflux (pelvic coil embolisaton) in females with leg varicose veins, who have a proven contribution to their leg varicose veins from pelvic reflux, have a reduction in recurrence after varicose vein surgery.
