Randomized Clinical Trial Comparing Two Methods for Endovenous Laser Ablation of Incompetent Perforator Veins in Thigh and Great Saphenous Vein Without Evidence of Saphenofemoral Reflux

Abstract

IPVA has clinical results and complications similar to those of GSVA in individuals with C2 and C3 chronic venous disease with IPVs in the thigh combined with incompetent GSV, but its higher technical failure rate makes it difficult to choose it as the primary treatment method.
