Endotherme - Model 980 - Laser Device

The principle of Endotherme is based on the thermal effect of the laser, which consists in 4 steps:

• Conversion of light into heat
• Transfer of the heat to the vessel wall
• Thermochemical effect on the tissue components of the vessel wall
• Destruction of the vessel wall.

A published and known efficiency:

A study, led by Desmyttère & al, and published in December 2007 in Journal of Vascular Surgery, reports that in a series of 500 patients, who were treated with Pharaon 980nm, the successful saphenous vein occlusion rate reaches 97% at 4 years.

Indications

Greater and small saphenous veins, diameter preferably between 4 and 8mm.

The endovenous laser treatment is effective, safe, quick and painless. This technique is lighter than the traditional surgery:

• Local or locoregional anesthesia
• No hospitalization, ambulatory
• No bruises
• No downtime: fast recovery
• No post-operative effects: shower possible straight away, no pain
