Summary

Lower-limb varicose veins (VVs) are the most common of vascular diseases and affect up to one-third of the population, severely affecting the quality of life (QoL) of patients. In past decades, traditional surgical ligation and stripping were the gold standard therapy for patients with VVs; however, traditional methods have demonstrated high complication and recurrence rates. Thus, the practices are moving toward minimally invasive alternatives.
