Vein Surgery Syracuse NY

If you have bulging surface varicose veins you should know that they can cause underlying vein problems. It is best to have these underlying veins treated, as well as having surface veins treated. When you visit your vein doctor, he or she will have you undergo a duplex ultrasound to evaluate the underlying veins of the leg prior to developing a treatment plan and vein surgery may be a viable option for you.

Forms of Vein Surgery Include

• Ambulatory Phlebectomy - which is removing varicose veins on the surface of the legs

• Transilluminated Powered Phlebectomy - is where the surgeon uses a light just under the skin to assist in removing the veins.

• Vein Ligation - is where veins are tied off to reduce the blood flow

• Vein stripping - is where the veins are tied off and removed

• Endovenous laser treatment - utilizes a laser to treat the problematic veins

• Radiofrequency Occlusion - is laser treatment as well

• Sclerotherapy - a solution is injected into the vein to help dissipate the veins

As with any invasive procedure complications can occur that include:

• Numbness

• Phlebitis

• Deep venous thrombosis

• Infection

• Bruising

• Failure of the procedure
