Abstract
Purpose: To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the new internal compression therapy (ICT) system in deep vein insufficiency (DVI). Surgical treatments are impractical, and the success rate is lower in the treatment of deep vein insufficiency (DVI). We have developed a new technology called the ICT valve leak sealer reconstruction system (Invamed, Ankara/Turkey) for the treatment of primary DVI by applying internal compression. Methods: Three research articles evaluated in this meta-analysis study, searched PubMed and Scholar Google using the words "internal compression therapy" and deep vein insufficiency therapy. Original full text articles on the ICT System for the treatment of DVI considered eligible studies published until July 2022. Results: In the included studies, the procedure time was 11-23 minutes. At the end of one year or more of follow-up, the anatomical success rate was greater than 92%. The diameters of the veins decreased significantly. Venous Clinical Severity Score (VCSS) and Quality of Life (QoL) scores have improved at statistically significant rates. Conclusion: ICT is a minimally invasive, fast, safe, and effective percutaneous method for the treatment of patients with DVI. The procedure applied in outpatient conditions and improves the patient's clinic in a short time.
