Patients were evaluated clinically on the first month, sixth month, first year and second year after the operation. The treated limbs were evaluated and recorded separately. Results: In the postoperative period, reflux was assessed at the level of 0.5 sec in 2 (0.3%) patients in the 12th month, and 1 sec in 2 (0.3%) patients in the 24th month. The patients stated that minor complications such as pain, burning, fatigue, itching 98.8% healing in the 12th month.
