Objective To evaluate feasibility and clinical effect of individual therapy for venous ulceration of lower extremity. Methods From February 2012 to February 2014, 360 cases (totally 421 lower limbs) treated by the individual therapy were analyzed retrospectively. There were 126 male and 234 female patients, with a mean age of 53 years (ranging from 45 to 78 years). The venous ulceration occurred in left limb for 176 cases, right limb for 123 cases, and both limbs for 61 cases. The individualized treatment plans were performed for all the patients according to the color Doppler before the operation. The perforating vein was ligated during the operation, and elastic stockings were wore after operation. The operation time, postoperative VAS pain score, perioperative complications, ulcer healing and recurrence were recorded. Results The operations were completed in all the patients, the average operation time was 35 min. The average VAS pain score was 2.6 at 8 h after operation, the pain was disappeared nearly at 24 h after operation. The time of returning to normal activity was 3 d. The incision bleeding occurred in 5 cases, the ulcer infection occurred in 32 lower limbs. The patients were followed-up for 12 months to 24 months, all the ulcers were healed, there were 9 cases of recurrence. Conclusion Individual therapy for venous ulceration of lower extremity is safe, effective, fewer complications, fast ulcer healing, and less postoperative pain.
