Understanding Flebotomy: A Guide to the Surgical Procedure for Varicose Veins

Flebotomy is a surgical procedure to remove the veins in the legs, usually for the treatment of varicose veins or other venous conditions. It is also known as phlebectomy or vein stripping. During the procedure, the surgeon makes small incisions in the legs to remove the affected veins, which are then replaced with healthy veins or artificial tubes. The goal of flebotomy is to improve blood flow and reduce pain and swelling in the legs.
