How VenaSeal works
A thin catheter delivers small amounts of n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate medical adhesive into the vein. It closes the vein walls and redirects blood through healthy veins. Because no heat is used, local anaesthesia is needed only at the catheter entry site. VenaSeal is a Medtronic technology certified for use in Ukraine.
The procedure, step by step
Ultrasound marking
The doctor identifies the affected vein with ultrasound and plans the procedure.
One puncture
Local anaesthesia only at the entry site, not along the entire vein.
Adhesive delivery
