Abstract
Conventional varicose vein techniques suffer from a number of disadvantages and potential complications, including, for example, a risk for the development of hematomas, swelling, and blood clots, post-surgical pain and nerve injury, a potential for spontaneous regeneration and undesired resumption of varicosity, a need for a highly skilled surgical professional, as well as, in certain instances, a prolonged recovery period, accompanied by severe limitations on post-surgical activity. The present invention overcomes the disadvantages and deficiencies of the prior art by providing a method for percutaneously occluding and dividing a varicose vein or other problematic vessel, a rapid, reliable, less invasive therapy that may be readily, reliably, and successfully performed by minimally skilled personnel around the world in a variety of medical settings.
