Özet: In managing saphenous vein reflux, endovenous laser ablation (EVLA) has emerged as a trendy minimally invasive substitute in recent years. The development of this field benefits from a thorough understanding of its state of development, and bibliometric analysis may help this. However, no bibliometric analysis has adequately summed up this field. In this study, we sought to analyze decades' worth of EVLA literature. The present study aimed to retrieve information from journals listed in the Web of Science (WoS) search engine with the dataset "TI= (EVLA) or TI= (Endovenous Laser Ablation)." We searched the WoS core collection. There were 471 publications (70.701% articles). They were cited 8062 times totally and 17.12 times per article. The mean Hirsch (H) index of the published documents was 49. Over the past 20 years, there has been a gradual rise in the number of publications and citations in EVLA research, suggesting that the field has gained attention. The United States of America (USA) (n=99), England (n=48), Netherlands (n=48), Türkiye (n=46), and Germany (n=40) were the top five publishing countries on EVLA research. The findings showed that the number of published documents was limited. The contribution was only from 46 countries. The number of publications and the number of broadcasting countries should be increased.
