Summary

This clinical trial aims to assess the efficacy and safety of the SALFOAM 3% method, which involves saline wash, polidocanol 3% foam injection, and extrinsic compression using Lidstop®, in comparison with the conventional Tessari method for the treatment of lower limb varicose veins. The primary objective is to determine whether the SALFOAM 3% method results in better or equivalent vein occlusion rates and fewer adverse effects, such as hyperpigmentation, compared to the standard treatment.
