Resumen
CANATA, Victor; RAMIREZ, María Victoria; NUNEZ, Gladys y LETICIA, Quiroga. Non-Surgical Treatment of CEAP 2 Varicose Veins Using Flebogrif® MOCA: Series of 5 Cases at the Paraguayan Varicose Veins Center. An. Fac. Cienc. Méd. (Asunción) [online]. 2025, vol.58, n.3, pp.62-68. ISSN 1816-8949. https://doi.org/10.18004/anales/2025.058.03.62.
Objective:
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of the Flebogrif® device for mechanochemical ablation (MOCA) in treating CEAP 2 varicose veins.
Methods:
Prospective case series of five patients (four women, one man) with CEAP 2 varicose veins treated with Flebogrif® between January and July 2023. Pre-treatment evaluation with duplex ultrasound and follow-up at 1-, 3-, 6-, and 18-months post-treatment was performed.
Results:
All patients maintained complete vein occlusion at 18 months without evidence of recanalization. Significant pain reduction and quality of life improvement were observed in all cases. No major complications were recorded.
Conclusion:
MOCA with Flebogrif® proved to be a safe, effective, and economical alternative for treating saphenous insufficiency with promising short-term results.
