Varicose veins, one of the oldest known diseases of mankind were treated by various modalities starting from simple phlebotomy to minimally invasive approaches. Aim and Objectives: In this study the outcome of two surgical treatment modalities of varicose surgery with and without venous stripping was compared based upon a follow up period of two months. Materials and Methods: Among the 92 patients operated for varicose veins between September 2018 to November 2019 in all surgical units of Trichy SRM Medical College Hospital, S50 patients of age group 16 – 70 yrs were taken up for the study after matching. Results: In this study males contribute the maximum bulk of about 82%. As for as the age is considered, patients aged between 40 – 70 yrs was more, which was about 58%. The hematoma formation after venous stripping was 28% whereas it was only 4% in the other group. There was no significant difference in healing of leg wounds in both the studies The first postoperative comfortable ambulation with minimal pain was possible in more patients who did not undergo venous stripping (92%) than who underwent stripping (68%).Long postoperative stay of more than 6 days was found in 8% of those who underwent stripping and 4% of the other group. The long stay was mostly due to pain and delayed wound healing. Pain relief was seen in 96% of those who had venous stripping and 88 % of those who did not undergo venous stripping at the end of second month.Conclusion: This study on observation concludes there was no significant difference in healing of leg wounds, hospital stay and pain relief in both the studies, but the Trendelenburg procedure with incompetent perforators ligation without venous stripping appears to be better than Trendelenburg procedure with incompetent perforators ligation with venous stripping.
