Exit site complications following cyanoacrylate glue endovenous ablation of incompetent truncal veins for chronic venous insufficiency
In the last 5 years, the use of nonthermal, nontumescent endovenous ablation such as cyanoacrylate glue (CAG) for treatment of chronic venous insufficiency has gained global popularity. This case series discusses the presentation and management of delayed access sheath site infections in patients wh...

| description | In the last 5 years, the use of nonthermal, nontumescent endovenous ablation such as cyanoacrylate glue (CAG) for treatment of chronic venous insufficiency has gained global popularity. This case series discusses the presentation and management of delayed access sheath site infections in patients who have undergone CAG therapy. The authors believe such adverse effects are related to granuloma formation owing to a hypersensitivity reaction to CAG at the puncture exit site. The endovenous surgeon should be aware of preventing glue spillage into the subcutaneous space at the access site during treatment, to minimize the risk of this complication developing. |
