Materials and Methods: We studied 120 specimens of great saphenous veins from 30 patients with chronic venous disease with largediameter (>1 cm). Patients were randomly divided into two groups. The 1st group received EVLA using wavelengths of 1470 nm, the 2nd group received EVLA using wavelengths of 1940 nm. Four specimens were taken at the level of the lower third of the thigh after laser coagulation in each patient. Vein specimens were processed for histological studies. Both qualitative and quantitative analyses were performed to assess the degree of wall changes. Results: The share of satisfactory results when using 1470 nm laser wavelengths is 83.3%, while when using 1940 nm laser wavelengths this result is 93.3%. When using both wavelengths of laser irradiation with a GSV diameter of more than 1 cm, no unsatisfactory results are observed. Conclusions: Obtained in our study data confirmed efficacy of the 1470 and 1940 nm endovenous laser ablation in the treatment of the large size GSV (more than 10 mm). Histological exams show preferability in the 1940 nm EVLA versa 1470 nm, considering the excellent result in the uniformity of distribution and safety in the deepness of the thermal injury.enCC BY-NC-ND 4.0endovenous laser ablationchronic venous diseaselarge diameter great saphenous veins1470 and 1940 nm wavelengthslaser thermal injurywewnątrzżylna ablacja laserowaprzewlekła choroba żylnażyły odpiszczelowe o dużej średnicydługość fali 1470 i 1940 nmlaserowe uszkodzenie termiczneArticle
