SEPS is an innovative minimally invasive approach for
the treatment of chronic venous insufficiency or leg
ulcers . This procedure addresses the underlying cause
of leg ulcers & chronic skin changes of the legs.
It enables the ulcers to heal faster in a relatively
short period of time and reduces the chance of developing
new ulcers.
The procedure is performed through one or two small
incisions below the knee away from the ulcer area. A
camera is inserted under the skin, the diseased veins
(perforators) are visualized on a TV screen and disconnected.
Any existing varicose veins are treated prior to or
at the same time of SEPS.
