Suppurative Thrombophlebitis Surgery
Overview
Surgical option of suppurative thrombophlebitis is considered in cases that does not respond properly to antibiotic therapy. Incision and drainage, or excision of the affected vein and its tributaries may be considered during the surgical settings.[1]
Surgical Therapy
- For peripheral veins suppurative thrombophlebitis, usually incision and drainage, or excision of the affected vein and its tributaries is the procedure, but sometimes they are inadequate alone to remove the septic focus and recurrent bacteremia can occur; in such cases, radical vein excision may be needed.[2][3]
