VNUS ClosureRFS™ Stylet: Treats Perforator Vein Reflux
Advanced venous hypertension may cause leg skin changes including hyperpigmentation, lipodermatoscerosis, or venous ulcers. The prevalence of these advanced symptoms is high, effecting 7% to 9% of the population and increasing with age. Refluxing perforator veins contribute to the hypertension in over two thirds of these patients. For physicians seeking to treat the whole spectrum of venous pathology in managing patients with venous disease, the ClosureRFS Stylet is the only intravascular ablation device specifically cleared by the FDA for the treatment of incompetent perforator veins. This minimally invasive outpatient treatment can be either the primary procedure or an adjunct to saphenous vein ablation with the VNUS ClosureFAST™ catheter.
