Abstract
SummaryIn mechano-chemical ablation (MOCA) the vein to be treated is not heated but is occluded with a combination of mechanical and chemical techniques. No anaesthesia is required as access to the vein is through an 18G vein cannula, and there is no danger of nerve lesions as the technique is heat-free. MOCA is therefore particularly suitable for treating the small saphenous vein (SSV).
