Recently we encounter the patients who have widely scattered venous varices (CEAP classification >C2) of lower extremity. They require complete resolution of varices that have scattered wide lesion occasionaly. For these cases, at first with patient in prone posture we start operation from calf with stab avulsion, pin stripping and radiofrequency (laser) ablation appropriately except case involved lesion of great saphenous vein. After then knee joint is depended, we complete total varicectomy of pretibial region, lateral side of lower leg, ankle joint and pedal. Depending knee joint position under prone posture provide with easy situation for total varicectomy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
