Of the 1082 patients with varicose vein surgery in the past 2 years, 15 cases of venous stasis ulcer (C6) were investigated. Six male and nine female patients had an average age of 64.8 years. In all cases, incompetent GSV was noticed, one of those was a combination of SSV insufficiency. The percentage of standing work was 10 (67%). Preoperative ultrasonography revealed that 8 (53%) had deep vein reflux. Endovenous laser ablation was performed within 1–2 months from the initial diagnosis, and the improvement of the skin lesion of all cases was obtained after the operation.
