BACKGROUND: The aim of this article is to summarize and review the proposed theories on
the laser action during endovenous ablation. METHODS: Laser mechanics and laser–tissue …

Endovenous laser ablation (EVLA) is a commonly used and very effective minimally invasive
therapy to manage leg varicosities. Yet, and despite a clinical history of 16 years, no …

INTRODUCTION:: During the last decade, thermal ablation techniques such as endovenous
laser ablation have been challenging the position of traditional surgery for the treatment of …

Background The aim was to compare endovenous laser ablation (EVLA) and endovenous
steam ablation (EVSA) for great saphenous varicose veins in a non-inferiority study …

OBJECTIVE: To assess the safety and efficiency of steam vein sclerosis (SVS) of the great
saphenous vein (GSV) in a multicentre open prospective cohort study. DESIGN: 75 …

Minimally invasive treatment of varicose veins by endovenous laser ablation (EVLA)
becomes more and more popular. However, despite significant research efforts performed …

Objective This study aimed to investigate the different mechanisms involved in the use of
bare, radial, and two-ring fibers, operating at 980-or 1470-nm wavelengths, by analyzing the …

Endovenous laser ablation (EVLA) is successfully used to treat varicose veins. However, the
exact working mechanism is still not fully identified and the clinical procedure is not yet …

This paper presents the results of endovenous laser ablation (EVLA) of varicose veins in
vitro using radiation of a solid-state laser based on the crystal LiYF 4: Tm, with a wavelength …

Endovenous thermal ablation (EVTA) techniques are very effective for the treatment of
varicose veins, but their exact working mechanism is still not well documented. The lack of …
