  • Comparison of Immediate Therapeutic Effects Between Endovenous Laser Treatment and Conventional Surgical Therapy for Lower Extremity Varicosity

      Objective To compare the immediate therapeutic effects between endovenous laser treatment and conventional surgery for lower extremity varicosity.   Methods Data of 350 limbs of 275 patients treated by endovenous laser treatment (endovenous laser treatment group) and 310 limbs of 210 patients by traditional surgery (traditional surgery group) were analyzed and compared in terms of operation time, number of the incision, postoperative pain, complications, postoperative hospitalized duration and 1-year recurrence rate.   Results Endovenous laser treatment group had shorter operation time, fewer incisions, less postoperative pain and shorter postoperative hospitalized duration than traditional surgery group (Plt;0.05). The complications and 1-year recurrence rate had no significant differences between two groups (Pgt;0.05).   Conclusion As a safe and effective new treatment for lower extremity varicosity with minimal invasiveness and no left scars, endovenous laser treatment has the potential to replace conventional surgery and extend the surgical indications for lower extremity varicosity treatment.
