Overview

Literature review explores the effectiveness of varicose vein ablation in Japan, suggesting a new treatment standard.

Key Points

  • To evaluate the application and effectiveness of EVLA in treating tributary varicose veins and to assess recent initiatives in Japan.
  • Conducted a narrative review of 14 relevant publications
  • Included a multicenter study and guidelines development from Japan
  • Examined technical characteristics of a new 1470-nm radial fiber
  • Demonstrated complete vein occlusion at 1 month in 400 multcenter cases
  • Reported low rates of severe complications with the R2SF technique
  • 2025 guidelines recognized VVA as a viable treatment option alongside two others
