J Vasc Brasil. 2006; 5(4): 295 Appreciation of Anatomy • REVATA retrospective cohort analysis • Post-ablation 7% had varicose vein recurrence at ~3 yrs • Among the recurrence cases: -2/3 had perforator reflux -40 new AAGSV reflux -24 new SSV reflux BUSH RG et al. Factors associated with recurrence of varicose veins after thermal ablation: Results of the recurrent veins after thermal ablation study. Sci World J. 2014; 505843 Superficial veins: GSV, SSV, AAGSV, PAGSV, intersaphenous, reticular Perforators: Cross fascial planes (superficial to deep) Communicators: Connect in same fascial plane Deep veins: Common femoral, femoral, popliteal, soleal, gastroc, tibial… Caggiati A.

J Vasc Surg. 2005; 41: 719-24 Pointers: • True GSV duplication (within fascia) ~2% in thigh, 25% in calf. • GSV may exit fascia and become more superficial in distal thigh. • Valve in SFJ 94% • Main GSV trunk: 6+ valves • SSV: 7-10 valves Thomson H.
