dc.description.abstractObjectives Acupuncture is one of the oldest therapeutic interventions in the world for the treatment of pain, musculoskeletal diseases, and inflammation. This study aimed to investigate the effect of acupuncture on pain and IL-17 and IL-23 levels in the treatment of endovenous ablation. Methods The study was a randomized controlled trial. Patients were divided into group C (Control, n = 35) and group A (Acupuncture, n = 35). Group A patients were treated with acupuncture 24 h preoperatively. Follow-up checkups were conducted intraoperatively, postoperatively, and on the third day. Results There was no difference between men; there was a difference between women. Visual analog scale score was lower in group A at the intraoperative third and fifth minutes (0.00 vs. 1 and 0.00 vs. 0.5). Analgesic consumption was lower in group A at the end of third day (p = 0.024). Postoperative IL-17 levels were higher than preoperative levels in group A (23.58 vs. 19.33). Postoperative IL-23 levels were lower than preoperative levels in group A (13.66 vs. 29.51). Group C showed increased postoperative IL-23 levels (28.81 vs. 33.51). Preoperative IL-17 and postoperative IL-23 levels were lower in group A than in group C (19.33 vs. 27.69 and 13.66 vs. 33.51). Although no difference was observed between group A and group C in preoperative saphenous vein diameter, postoperative saphenous vein diameter was smaller in group A (p = 0.008). Saphenous vein diameter was smaller on day 3 in group A than in group C (p = 0.043). Conclusion Acupuncture is effective on acute pain and level of IL-23 in the treatment of endovenous ablation using cyanoacrylate.
