Abstract
Endovenous obliteration of the GSV poses little risk of PE or DVT, no matter what size the proximal GSV. Although these adverse events may be reduced with adjunctive proximal GSV ligation, the results of this study suggest that adjunctive proximal GSV ligation is superfluous in most patients.
