What is the typical cost of surgery for varicose veins

The general cost of varicose vein treatment surgery is approximately between $5000-15000. The reason why there is such a big difference is that there are more surgical methods, different equipment used for the surgery, and different anesthesia required for the surgery, all of which will lead to different overall costs. If the traditional surgical method is used, a high saphenous vein ligation and stripping with branch vein stripping, which requires the use of lumbar anesthesia, the cost will be around 5,000 yuan. If the procedure chosen is a general anesthetic procedure, which is relatively comfortable for the patient, using a high saphenous vein ligation and stripping and branch vein sclerotherapy injection, the cost will be around $8,000. If the radiofrequency ablation used, coupled with sclerotherapy injection, does not require general anesthesia, but only local anesthesia, the cost will be around 15,000 yuan, because the cost of the catheter for radiofrequency ablation will be very expensive, about nearly 10,000 yuan.
