Summary

The aim of this trial is to determine if fat grafting may have applicability to venous ulcers by comparing healing and recurrence rates in patients who receive combined fat grafting and endovenous ablation with patients who receive endovenous ablation only

Conditions

  • Varicose Ulcer

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Fat grafting

Under general or local anaesthesia, fat will be harvested from either abdomen or lower limb. After harvesting the fat by liposuction, the lipoaspirate will be injected underneath the ulcer under complete aseptic operative setting
