Summary

This trial is designed as a prospective, non randomized, single center clinical trial to determine the safety and efficacy of laser ablation of incompetent perforator veins.

Within this clinical evaluation, fifty (50) limbs will be treated with Vari-Lase ®. A duplex ultrasound will verify the presence or absence of incompetent perforator veins (IPV). In addition, the number, diameter and location of the IPVs will be determined. Limbs with IPVs which measure greater than or equal to 3mm in diameter and are located superior to the foot and distal ankle will be considered for entry into the study.
