Complex examination and the following treatment of 142 patients with acute superficial varicothrombophlebitis were analyzed. The patients were divided into 2 groups. The first group consisted of 41 patients who were subjected to venectomy in the acute period of the disease, the second group--of 101 patients with two stages of treatment. At the first stage sclerosurgical technologies were used to arrest the inflammatory process. At the second stage the thrombosed varicose veins were surgically ablated. In the first group patients complications at the early postoperative period developed in 17% of cases, at the late period--in 14.6%. In the second group complications were noted in 3 and 2% of cases respectively.
