A randomised trial of bandaging after sclerotherapy for varicose veins.
169 legs with primary varicose veins suitable for sclerotherapy were entered into the trial. At the time of injection they were randomly allocated to be bandaged for three or six weeks; patients allocated to the six-week group had their legs rebandaged after the first three week. Patients were subsequently assessed blind at three months and thereafter at yearly intervals.
