Ultrasound-guided transcutaneous venous occlusion of the small saphenous vein - INAHTA BRIEF

The aim of this assessment was to assess the benefit-risk balance of the radiofrequency (RF) small saphenous vein (SSV) occlusion procedure, which had not previously been assessed by the French National Authority for Health (HAS), and to define its role among previously assessed techniques approved for cover. The ultimate aim was to assess whether it should be covered by National Health Insurance.
