Vascular clinic

Vascular clinic in Kladno focused on the diagnosis and treatment of venous and arterial diseases. We offer specialist vascular examinations, including ultrasound mapping of the vascular system, which makes it possible to accurately assess the condition of the veins and arteries and recommend an appropriate treatment. We focus mainly on varicose veins and their complications, arterial diseases of the lower limbs, narrowing of the carotid arteries and other vascular conditions. Based on the examination results, we choose an individual approach ranging from conservative treatment to conventional or modern minimally invasive procedures such as laser treatment of varicose veins, ClariVein or sclerotherapy.

Diagnosis of vascular diseases

The basis of successful treatment is accurate and targeted diagnostics. We use modern ultrasound devices to provide detailed images of the venous and arterial systems. Using duplex sonography, we can examine the patency of the arteries, the condition of the venous valves, the presence of varicose veins and connections between deep and superficial veins. The examination is non-invasive, painless and immediately provides key information for determining the next course of action. Based on the results, we propose individual treatment that corresponds to the patient's current condition and needs.

Varicose vein surgery

Classic varicose vein surgery

In traditional surgical treatment of varicose veins, the damaged veins are mechanically removed. The procedure takes 60–90 minutes and is performed under general anesthesia as a day care. The patient is admitted and discharged within 24 hours. After the procedure, it is necessary to wear compression stockings for 6 weeks, including at night for the first two weeks. Walking is usually possible the second day, and greater physical exertion after 3–4 weeks. Total recovery takes approximately a month and a half. Although it is an effective method, it is associated with a longer healing time and greater intervention in the tissues than modern minimally invasive procedures.

Laser varicose vein surgery

This minimally invasive method involves closing the damaged vein using a laser fiber that is inserted directly into the vein. The high temperature acts on the vascular wall from the inside and turns the vein into a fibrous band. The procedure is performed under general or local anesthesia and lasts approximately 45–60 minutes. The advantages are minimal pain, rapid recovery, and short incapacity for work. Compression stockings are only required for 2 weeks. Most patients can return to their normal routine after 3–5 days, depending on the nature of the work and the extent of the procedure.

ClariVein – a non-thermal, painless method

Modern solution for varicose veins without anesthesia and without restrictions

The ClariVein method combines mechanical and chemical action on the inner wall of the vein. Without the need for anesthesia or thermal energy, the vein is gently closed. The procedure takes about 30 minutes, the patient goes home without significant limitations. It is also suitable for patients with lymphedema or leg ulcers.

ClariVein Benefits:

  • without the need for anesthesia
  • without restrictions after performance
  • suitable for sensitive skin and after inflammation
  • full load possible almost immediately
  • wearing compression stockings for two weeks, the first week of which is permanent

Sclerotization

Quick solution for spider veins and small varicose veins

Sclerotherapy is an outpatient procedure in which a sclerosing solution or foam is applied to small veins. This causes the damaged veins to close. The procedure does not require anesthesia and takes about 30 minutes. After the procedure, the patient wears compression stockings for 2–3 weeks, otherwise there are no restrictions.

What you can expect:

  • minimal pain
  • only temporary bruising or pigmentation
  • full activity without the need for sick leave
