Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 was a testing time for healthcare facilities all over the world, every day new frontiers were met. The patients were to be treated with compassion and care meantime following all safety norms. Trendelenburg’s operation is the time-tested treatment available for varicose veins usually done under spinal or general anesthesia, using electrocautery for dissection and hemostasis. But due to the risk of aerosol generation spinal anesthesia or general anesthesia or use of electrocautery were reserved to a minimum. In this article, we share our experience of undertaking Trendelenburg’s operation for one such patient who got her 8 years old venous ulcer completely healed during the pandemic without getting covid transmission and comparable results that of the conventional Trendelenburg’s operation.
