Varicose Vein Treatment – Venex System
Vein gluing (Venex system) is a modern method of treating chronic venous insufficiency. The procedure involves closing diseased veins with a special medical adhesive. It is performed under ultrasound (USG) guidance, which ensures precise placement of the adhesive and effective closure of the insufficient vessels.
What Does the Venex Varicose Vein Treatment Involve?
The procedure begins with a single puncture, through which a catheter is inserted into the affected vein. Using an applicator, small amounts of medical adhesive are then delivered, causing the vein walls to seal and the vessel to close. The treatment usually takes between 15 and 30 minutes and does not require general anesthesia or hospitalization. Patients can return to their normal daily activities almost immediately after the procedure.
Indications for the Procedure
Vein gluing is recommended in cases of:
- insufficiency of the main venous trunks, such as the saphenous or small, saphenous vein,
- varicose veins of the lower limbs of varying diameters,
- insufficient perforator veins,
- recurrent venous disease,
- venous malformations.
Contraindications to the Procedure
The procedure is not recommended for patients with: allergy to the components of the medical adhesive, acute deep vein thrombosis, active skin infections at the treatment site, blood clotting disorders.

Post-Treatment Recommendations
After the procedure, the patient can leave the clinic and return to normal activities.

A follow-up visit with Doppler ultrasound is usually scheduled after a few weeks to assess the effectiveness of the treatment.
