NCT ID NCT07616115
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked at two surgical approaches for varicose veins: removing the main faulty vein and the visible varicose veins all at once, or removing just the main vein first and the varicose veins later. Researchers wanted to see which approach leads to better symptom relief and quality of life. A total of 34 adults with varicose veins took part, and they completed surveys before and after surgery to track their progress.
