Abstract
To achieve a unique goal in the treatment of varicose veins in order to obtain the desired result, we use EVLA as the execution of a single treatment that is optimized to treat varicose veins, in which we can treat different kind of patients which we have treated from November 2001 to March 2017. So 3486 documentary cases were carried out with this treatment and the analysis of these cases was the object of this retrospective observational study that allows doctors to understand the surroundings of this procedure on his road to desired perfection. The comparison of the first 8 years of clinical execution with the second ones, allows us to obtain postulates that can serve as guide lines for the understanding of the main fields involved, whether they are the human or the social, economic or even the technician execution needed to obtain the results that allow us to well founded considerations about the validity of this method, as well as we can think how to improve or execute it in order to obtain even better results. The aim of our comparison is to try to understand the clinical and physical contents of these contributions and obtained knowledge that allows the doctors with the bridge that overlaps these different backgrounds.
