Saphenion®: Mikroschaumtherapie bei Stammkrampfadern – Die Verödungstherapie mit Mikroschaum ist grundsätzlich auch an den Stammvenen der Arme, Beine und auch des Oberkörpers erfolgreich durchführbar. Klebender Mikroschaum ist eine Modifikation des bekannten Verfahrens der Mikroschaumtherapie. Man erweitert die Verödungskomponente des Wirkstoffs Polidocarnol (Ethoxisklerol®, ab 1968 in der BRD zugelassen) mit dem Klebeeffekt von hochprozentiger steriler Glukose – Lösung.

Saphenion®: Microfoam therapy for truncal varicose veins – Sclerotherapy with microfoam can also be successfully performed on the truncal veins of the arms, legs and upper body. Adhesive microfoam is a modification of the well-known microfoam therapy procedure. The sclerosing component of the active ingredient polidocarnol (Ethoxisklerol®, approved in Germany from 1968) is combined with the adhesive effect of a high-percentage sterile glucose solution.

Saphenion®: Stammkrampfadern kleben – schon Sauerbruch tat es. Seit Mitte der 20er Jahre wurden Stammkrampfadern mittels Zuckerlösungen verödet und verklebt.
Mikroschaum wird seit Beginn der 2000er auch zur Therapie der Stammkrampfader eingesetzt. Dabei ist die Idee des Verklebens von Krampfadern nicht neu: Bereits in den 20er Jahren wurden Krampfadern mit Kalorose, einer 40% Glucoselösung, verödet und verklebt. 
Auch der Nestor der deutschen Verödungstherapie, Paul Linser, wechselte nach seinem Umzug nach Berlin 1924 von der Kochsalzverödung zur Verklebung mit Zuckerlösungen.

Saphenion®: Sticking varicose veins – Sauerbruch already did it. Since the mid-1920s, varicose veins have been sclerosed and glued using sugar solutions.
Microfoam has also been used to treat varicose veins since the early 2000s. The idea of gluing varicose veins is not new: as early as the 1920s, varicose veins were sclerosed and glued using calorose, a 40% glucose solution.
Paul Linser, the pioneer of German sclerotherapy, also switched from saline sclerotherapy to gluing with sugar solutions after moving to Berlin in 1924.

Saphenion®: The Endovenous „Saphena“- We will try to give an overview of the historical development of the varicose vein treatment. You will agree after a short time with the words of Minkiewicz  (1862): „Comparative studies of all surgical procedures recommended against varices“ (25) that „the quantity of some healing methods proposed in surgical and therapeutic practice against certain diseases either proves that the former has not yet been sufficiently researched or that the actual healing method is yet to be discovered. This applies to a large extent to varices and the usual „operation methods“ “ and we will try to describe the first therapeutical revolution from radical surgery to the endovenous therapy of varicose veins in the Twenties. We will show our ideas, mistakes, and experiences considering the historical development.

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“.
