Laser Ablation Technique - Endovenous laser treatment for varicose
veins using an optical fiber inserted into the vein
- great saphenous vein - small saphenous vein - sidebranches - using LASER light – infrared portion of
the spectrum

Procedure / Steps
Percutaneous duplex ultrasound guided access to the distal - great saphenous
vein or - small saphenous
vein

Procedure / Steps - GSV entered at the knee or SSV mid portion of calf
- guide wire passed through the needle into the vein
- remove the needle and insert Introducer sheath over a
guide wire
- removal of the guidewire and insertion of the Laser
fiber
- placement of the fiber tip 0-2 cm distal to saphenous
vein junction
- Tumescent anesthesia

Study Design
- Prospective cohort study - Patients recruited between May 2008 and
December 2011 - 381 consecutive patients (317 GSV and 62
SSV) - 372 patients completed 12-month follow-up
![Page 11: Laser technologies for endovenous ablations: What are the ... · Laser technologies for endovenous ablations: What are the latest developments Matthias Ulrich, MD ... - removal of](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081323/5f04b7a77e708231d40f5ae8/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Results
- 100% occlusion rate (GSV and SSV) mean 22 months follow up (min 12 max 48 months)
- Amount of the energy delivered targeted to the diameter of the saphenous trunk
- Laser in continuous mode, with a power of 5 to 6 W

- 2/3 of the patients had no pain - More than 2/3 of the patients didn‘t use
any pain killer - Pain is often referred to the site of
phlebectomies
Secondary outcome: post-operative pain

neoV 1470 - neoV1470 surgical laser – actual the smallest, laser system of its power class.
- Laser interaction with tissue depends on the wavelength of 1470 nm diode laser - wavelength is highly absorbed by water in tissue. - heat generation is highly localized in the vein wall
