An endoscopic vein surgery for varicose veins is a minimally invasive procedure to permanently remove varicose veins when there is symptoms of chronic venous insufficiency or other serious medical conditions due to varicose veins.
The doctor will make a small cut in your skin near a varicose vein, uses a tiny camera at the end of a thin tube to move through the vein and a surgical device at the end of the camera is used to close the vein. The surgery is used in severe cases when varicose veins are causing skin ulcers and sores.
