The term varicosity is generally applied to elongated, tortuous, pouched, thickened, inelastic and friable vessels which have permanently lost its vascular efficiency. This variation in the definition of varicose veins has led to wide discrepancies in its incidence reported in the literature. From the reported literate findings the current study was planned to study the different clinical presentations of varicose veins and find out the incompetence in lower limb varicose veins. The current study was planned on the patients with varicose veins of lower limb who had attended Vardhman Institute of Medical sciences, Pawapuri in surgery department From Feb 2018 to July 2018.
