[Video endoscopy-assisted saphenous vein occlusion--minimal invasive concept for treatment of varicose veins]
Abstract
Videoendoscopy-assisted saphena occlusion (VASO) is an minimally invasive technique for the treatment of varicosis with crossectomy, dissection of perforating veins and occlusion of the saphena by endoscopic control. The advantages are lower level of pain, remobilisation without problems, and fewer complications of wound healing. Early results correspond to stripping.
