Fig 1 A, The location of incompetent perforating veins in patients with recalcitrant venous ulcers. Each open circle represents a refluxing perforating vein. B, After the initial ablation procedure, the black circles represent ablated veins. C, After the second ablation procedure, additional veins were closed, as noted in this diagram.
