No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Varicose veins of the leg often have superficial tributaries, which are often symptomatic and a major reason for coming to the doctor. When treating the main varicose vein inside the leg, some doctors prefer to remove these tributaries while others prefer to leave them. This trial aims to see if it is better to remove these veins at the time of the first laser procedure or better to leave them and only remove them when asked.
