title: [Personal experience with laser photocoagulation of varicose veins].
abstract: Based on the published information on the use of operation lasers for endoluminal photocoagulation to seal varices the authors began to use KTP laser in 2001. The cohort included 200 patients operated on in 2002. The cohort was composed of three groups of patients: patients with reticular varices, those with non-saphenous varices and patients with the stem saphenous varices. The intervention was made by a KTP laser, wavelength 532 nm, light-conducting wires of 0.2, 0.3 or 0.6 mm diameter.
