Saphenion®: Garantiecard für Venenkleber

Die Langzeitergebnisse des Venenklebers über mehr als 10 Jahre Jahre sind sehr gut. Wir erreichten bei bisher 1873 Patienten mit 3754 behandelten Stammkrampfadern eine Verschlußeffektivität über den gesamten Zeitraum von 96,07%. Deshalb haben wir uns entschlossen, die Garantiezeit für den Venenkleber aktuell auf 5 Jahre zu verlängern und in unsere Behandlungsverträge einzubinden. Dies soll auch dokumentieren, daß wir von der Therapiemethode inzwischen – nach über 10 Jahren praktischem Einsatz – sehr überzeugt sind und eine Vielzahl wirklich positiv überraschter und zufriedener Patienten sehen.

The long-term results of the vein glue over more than 10 years are very good. In 1,873 patients with 3,754 treated truncal varicose veins, we have achieved a closure effectiveness of 96.07% over the entire period. That is why we have decided to extend the guarantee period for the vein glue to 5 years and to include it in our treatment contracts. This should also document that we are now very convinced of the therapy method – after more than 10 years of practical use – and see a large number of really positively surprised and satisfied patients.

Saphenion®: Berlin a center for vascular surgery

Saphenion®: Berlin a center for vascular surgery – The beginning: The development of vascular surgery on a scientific basis only began in the last third of the 19th. century. It is true that the Greeks, Romans, and Arabia as well as at the time of the European Renaissance carried out experiments on the „blood-carrying tubes of the human being“ and described some therapeutic procedures for hemostasis and removal of dilated veins.
Berlin surgeons made a major contribution to the formation and development of vascular surgery – particularly to the treatment of varicose veins. At the beginning of the 20th century, the city of Berlin began to develop into a center for the new field of „vascular surgery“.

Saphenion®: Covid Booster-Impfung und Krampfadern

Welche Auswirkungen hat eine Covid-Impfung mit mRNA-Impfstoffen auf das Immunsystem und dann auch auf Gefäße. Diese Frage stellt sich uns und unseren Kollegen seit 10 Monaten immer wieder und wurde auf unserer Website auch schon intensiv duskutiert. Nunmehr ergibt sich erneut eine fragile Situation, da weitere Impfungen, sog. Booster-Impfungen, deren notwendige Anzahl zwischen 2 und 8 Impfungen variieren, empfohlen werden und dann auch gesetzlich vorgeschrieben werden sollen.
What effects does a Covid vaccination with mRNA vaccines have on the immune system and then also on blood vessels? We and our colleagues have been asking this question again and again for 10 months and it has already been discussed intensively on our website. A fragile situation now arises again, since further vaccinations, so-called booster vaccinations, the necessary number of which vary between 2 and 8 vaccinations, are recommended and should then also be prescribed by law.

Saphenion®: Memories of Sauerbruch

And the idea grew in us to do a little historical work on the subject of minimally invasive varicose vein therapy, and so we began with the necessary research in the specialist literature. So we were all the more surprised when we discovered that the idea of ​​gluing wasn’t all that new. And now PD Lahl told – rather casually – that until 1968 he had also worked with glucose solutions. This is exactly what we found in our research and this is exactly what led us back to Ferdinand Sauerbruch. Admittedly, it was more of a coincidence, and admittedly, a very small star in the big sky of surgery, but still very interesting and belonging to the present day.
