Endoscopic anatomy of perforating veins in chronic venous insufficiency of the legs: “Solitary” incompetent perforating veins are often actually multiple vessels

Abstract: We have already reported on the effectiveness of subfascial, endoscopic, perforating-veins surgery for chronic venous insufficiency of the legs. The incompetent perforating vein (IPV) often appears to be a single vessel, when it is actually two or more vessels. Accordingly we examined the anatomy and features of IPVS.
