Is there a difference in recurrence between minimally invasive surgery and general surgery for varicose veins of lower limbs?

There are several surgical treatments for varicose veins, such as high ligation, vein stripping, minimally invasive surgery and sclerosing agent injection. In fact, no matter which one, it is to remove the completely expanded blood vessels, or to use chemicals to make the blood vessels inelastic. These operations themselves destroy the integrity of blood vessels, and the recurrence rate is particularly high. Therefore, patients should not choose surgery easily unless they have to. No matter what hospital, its surgical treatment scheme is not the same, and it is not the best method to treat both the symptoms and the root causes. Therefore, surgery cannot cure varicose veins of lower limbs.

Surgery is not the best way to treat varicose veins. First of all, we should know that varicose veins are caused by damaged venous valves. Surgical treatment is to remove the damaged vein from the body and then ligate it, or use chemical drugs to make the blood vessels inelastic. These operations themselves destroy the integrity of blood vessels. Moreover, it is impossible to repair the damaged venous valve and completely eradicate varicose veins from the root. Moreover, the postoperative infection rate and recurrence rate are also extremely high, and there will be postoperative marks on the legs. Therefore, surgery can't cure the veins stood out.

At present, the most common treatment methods are: 1. Traditional surgical high ligation plus varicose vein resection; 2. Laser, RF and other intracavity sealing; 3. Hardener sealing; 4. Translucent direct-viewing rotary incision and subcutaneous communication segmentation. In fact, each method has its own advantages and disadvantages and indications, and can not be substituted for each other, but they can be used together. Simply put, the heavier Zhang Yue is, the more suitable it is for traditional surgical resection. For mild cases, you can choose 2 or 3 times of minimally invasive treatment, but there will be a certain recurrence rate.
