Data on clinical history, physical examination, CEAP classification, VCSS (Venous Clinical Severity Score) and VDS (Venous Disability Score) were collected. The extent of the great saphenous reflux was measured along with its main diameter at the level of the saphenofemoral junction as well as at the knee level. Reflux was defined as retrograde when reaching a speed greater than 3 cm/second during a Valsalva maneuver or through leg compression maneuvers.
