Summary

This randomized, parallel clinical trial with blinded outcome assessment will compare the clinical and aesthetic outcomes of polidocanol foam sclerotherapy alone versus polidocanol foam associated with long-pulse 1064 nm Nd:YAG transdermal laser in the treatment of lower-limb tributary varicose veins. The primary endpoint is venous occlusion rate at 30 days, assessed by Doppler ultrasound. Secondary outcomes include cutaneous hyperpigmentation, pain, patient satisfaction, and adverse events.

Conditions

  • Varicose Veins
