Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

More than 25 percent of the general population suffers from varicose veins, which has a considerable impact on quality of life. Nowadays endovenous treatment modalities for great saphenous incompetence are widely accepted. Mechanochemical endovenous ablation is a new tumescent-less technique, that combines mechanical endothelial damage using a rotating wire with the infusion of a liquid sclerosant. The current study aims at evaluating short and long term outcome after mechanochemical endovenous ablation.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Insufficiency of the GSV
* Ultrasound criteria for endovenous treatment have been met:
* Diameter GSV between 3-12 mm
