This minimally invasive outpatient procedure can be done in our office in Ashland, WI or at the Lakewalk Surgery Center in Duluth, MN.
Varicose veins is an age-old problem affecting approximately 15% of adults, predominantly, but not exclusively, women.
Patients affected with varicose veins frequently experience symptoms and complications of this malady. These include aching and heaviness of the involved extremity, inflammation (phlebitis), ulceration of the skin, thickened and discoloration of the skin and obvious cosmetic consequences of venous insufficiency. Although rare, massive bleeding from a varicose vein may be life threatening.
History of surgical approaches to this problem can be dated to 86 BC. Until recently, nothing has substantially changed with multiple incision phlebectomy (removal of varicose veins), with the exception of modern anaesthesia and antisepsis. Traditionally, surgery was tedious, time consuming, required multiple incisions and under varying circumstances, had an un-acceptable recurrence rate.
Commonly, the patient goes home only a few hours after surgery, not 1-2 days, as was common in the past.
Recently, Dr. Fall has completed extensive post graduate training in this procedure and is pleased to offer this state of the art technique to suffering patients.
Dr. Fall is a board certified general surgeon who has been treating varicose vein disease and venous hypertension for 25 years. He is current with the latest techniques and technology that is available on the market for treating vein patients. We are able to treat the unsightly spider veins, the symptomatic surface veins and veins above the muscles that are refluxing and no longer functioning to help venous return. The staff at Fall General Surgery is also trained on office based evaluation, pre-authorization and the modern treatments of varicose veins.
