A Randomized Trial of Early Endovenous Ablation in Venous Ulceration (2018)
Journal Article
Gohel, M. S., Heatley, F., Liu, X., Bradbury, A., Bulbulia, R., Cullum, N., …Davies, A. H. (2018). A Randomized Trial of Early Endovenous Ablation in Venous Ulceration. New England Journal of Medicine, 378(22), 2105-2114. https://doi.org/10.1056/nejmoa1801214

Venous disease is the most common cause of leg ulceration. Although compression therapy improves venous ulcer healing, it does not treat the underlying causes of venous hypertension. Treatment of superficial venous reflux has been shown t... Read More about A Randomized Trial of Early Endovenous Ablation in Venous Ulceration.
