ABSTRACT
Varicose veins of lower limbs is very common in clinical practice with its associated complications like venous ulcer, edema and pigmentation. Sapheno-femoral in competence and perforator incompetence are the principal cause of varicose veins. Trendlenburg operation of sapheno-femoral ligation and perforator ligation is standard procedure for its treatment. But for a beginner surgeon the procedure has some potential risks like injury to saphenous vein, injury to femoral vein and tributaries during dissection and ligation producing complications like bleeding, haematoma and long operative time. We have modified this Trendlenburg operation by a simple technique of canulating the saphenous vein from mid thigh end to easily identify the T-junction and tributaries. This Modified Trendlenburg Operation reduces the intra-operative complications and decreases the operation time.
