It is also effective for smaller varicose veins. Endoscopy surgery is used in varicose vein. With endoscopic vein surgery, a small video camera is used to see inside the veins. This procedure uses a tiny camera at the end of a thin tube to move through the varicose veins. A surgical instrument at the end of the camera is used to close the veins. Then varicose veins are removed through small cuts. People who have this varicose vein surgery must have some kind of anesthesia, such as epidural, spinal, or general anesthesia. Endoscopic vein surgery is currently only used in severe cases in which there are skin ulcers due to the varicose veins. Only small incisions are required for this procedure. You will wear a soft dressing on the leg for the three days following your surgery. Patients can return to normal activity within a few weeks.
