WHAT IS AMBULATORY PHLEBECTOMY?

Ambulatory phlebectomy is a method of removing varicose veins on the surface of the legs. It is performed in the office under local anesthesia. Tiny punctures or incisions through which the varicose veins are removed. Skin incisions or needle punctures as small as 1 mm are used to extract veins with a phlebectomy hook. Veins are very collapsible such that even large veins may be removed through the tiny incisions used in this technique.

The procedure is well tolerated by patients and produces great cosmetic results. Long-term results are excellent as long as the highest source of reflux is eliminated as well. In contrast to sclerotherapy of large varicose veins, ambulatory phlebectomy minimizes the risks of intra-arterial injection, skin necrosis, and residual hyperpigmentation.
