Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether adding sulodexide to the patients with varicose veins who received radiofrequency ablation combined with sclerotherapy can reduce or improve the impact of adverse events。
Detailed Description: Chronic venous insufficiency(CVI)of the lower extremities is a commonly clinically syndrome。 It can manifest as telangiectasias (or spider veins), reticular veins, varicose veins(VVS), edema, pigmentation and/or eczema, liposomal sclerosis, white atrophy, and venous ulcers。 Patients often seek treatment for varicose veins because of cosmetic problems, pain, swelling, itching, ulcers, and other symptoms。 With the development of society, more and more patients require to choose local anesthesia, minimally invasive, and rapid recovery surgery. Radiofrequency ablation(RFA) combined with sclerotherapy is a treatment with a broad clinically applicable spectrum for varicose veins, ranging from the Great saphenous vein (GSV)trunk to telangiectases (or spider veins).US guidelines for treating varicose veins and chronic venous disease of the lower extremities recommend endovascular thermal ablation (including RFA) as safe and effective for treating saphenous venous insufficiency. Foam sclerotherapy is to close the diseased vein by mixing sclerosants with air in a particular proportion and injecting it into the venous blood vessels so that the vein generates artificial thrombus and fibrosis. Because of its simple, economical, and minimally invasive characteristics, it is widely used in clinical practice.

Pigmentation, fibrous induration, and pain are the most common complications after RFA combined with sclerotherapy. Hyperpigmentation is a brownish discoloration of the skin due to extravasation of red blood cells and hemosiderin deposition。 Fibrous induration and pain are mainly caused by thrombosis, inflammation, and vascular fibrosis。 Sulodexide is an orally vasoactive drug consisting of 80% heparin sulfate + 20% corn sulfate, with antithrombotic, fibrinolytic, anti-inflammatory, endothelial protective, and vascular regulating properties. This agent is used in venous ulcers, prevents recurrent venous thromboembolism, and has a low incidence of bleeding complications.

Clinical observation in our department found that adding sulodexide can reduce or improve the impact of adverse events after RFA combined with sclerotherapy。

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether adding sulodexide to the patients with varicose veins who received RFA combined with sclerotherapy accelerates the dissipation of pigmentation and fibrosis。
