[Surgical treatment of varicose veins of the lower extremities in a polyclinic].

The authors discuss the results of 40 operations carried out in the outpatient clinic for varicosity of the lower limb veins. The number of complications did not exceed that in operations performed in the inpatient clinic. The home conditions, the absence of a possible intrahospital infection, and the increased motor activity help in rapid rehabilitation of the patients. The period of working disability is significantly reduced.
