Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two surgical approaches for treating varicose veins in the lower limbs in adults: performing varicose vein removal at the same time as great saphenous vein stripping (concomitant) versus performing great saphenous vein treatment alone.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Do clinical outcomes differ between these approaches?
* Does quality of life improve differently depending on which surgical approach is used?

Participants will:

* Undergo great saphenous vein stripping for lower limb varicose veins with or without simultaneous varicose vein ressection
* Be assigned to have varicose vein resection either at the same time or in a subsequent procedure
* Complete quality of life assessments before and after surgery

Conditions

  • Varicose Veins of Lower Limb
  • Saphenous Vein
  • Venous Insufficiency
