Summary
Recurrent varicose veins at the groin are mostly result due to a technical failure during the primary surgery with leaving a residual stump of the great saphenous vein. Therefore there should exist minimum requirements for a “correct” crossektomy of the great or small saphenous vein. A so called “flush ligation” with ligation of the great or small saphenous veins directly at their orifice to the deep vein is absolutely necessary. Furthermore an oversewing of the stump should prevent any contact of the endothelium with the surrounding tissue in order to prevent a so called neovascularization. Therefore an electrocoagulation of the endothelium should also be performed. Furthermore the fossa ovalis should be sutured to prevent reflux from the deep to the superficial venous system.
