Abstract
|
|
|
|
Varicose vein is a prevalent disease and a cause of substantial morbidity. Venous reflux often originates from saphenous trunks and their tributaries. The great saphenous vein and small saphenous vein have major anatomical variations due to their embryological origin. Understanding of anatomic variation and reflux pattern is important to decide the target lesions for treatment and treatment modalities for symptom relief effectively and to prevent the future complications and recurrence. In this review, we purposed to review the reflux pattern of the saphenous origin and the corresponding treatment methods.
