    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vein_stripping

    Vein stripping is a surgical procedure done under general or local anaesthetic to aid in the treatment of varicose veins and other manifestations of chronic venous disease. The vein "stripped" (pulled out from under the skin using minimal incisions) is usually the great saphenous vein. The surgery involves making incisions (usually the groin ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHIVA_method

    One study found that with CHIVA, recurrences was 18% rather than 35% with high ligation and stripping after 10 years follow-up. [3] Patient symptoms at 10 years, however, did not differ. [3] The CHIVA and the stripping methods are equivalent regarding recurrence of varicose veins, but the CHIVA method may slightly reduce nerve injury and hematoma.

    Endovenous thermal ablation (EVTA) by radiofrequency or laser is a safe and effective treatment of refluxing great saphenous veins [7] (GSVs) and has replaced traditional high ligation and stripping in official recommendations of various leading Vascular Societies in the United States and the United Kingdom.

    With this method, the long saphenous vein is preserved. Cryosurgery – A cryoprobe is passed down the long saphenous vein following saphenofemoral ligation. The probe is then cooled with NO 2 or CO 2 to −85°F. The vein freezes to the probe and can be retrogradely stripped after 5 seconds of freezing. It is a variant of stripping.

    The great saphenous vein is exposed and the common femoral and subsartorial veins are identified before dividing. The vein is ligated close to the junction with of the femoral vein. [ 3 ] If the ligation is distal from the saphenofemoral junction , it will leave out small tributaries which may later cause recurrence of varicosities.

    For example, after a GSV stripping, laser ablation or after its ligation at the sapheno-femoral junction, the Giacomini vein will drain into the SSV, with a retrograde flow. When there is a GSV thrombosis or other cause of insufficiency, the Giacomini vein can divert the blood flow to the SSV and from there to the popliteal vein.

    The vein can be identified near the saphenous ostium by a typical ultrasonographic image the so-called Mickey mouse sign (the 2 ears will be the GSV and the ASV, the head is the common femoral vein). When the ultrasonography is performed, we can see it running across the anterior face of the thigh in a plan outside the femoral vessels, the GSV ...
