Ashton Vein Center

Sometimes we uncover more than venous insufficiency. Bigger problems may require treatment at the hospital.
◽ Venous Thrombectomy: In cases of extensive DVT, some patients are candidates for a procedure called percutaneous thrombolysis and thrombectomy to restore normal flow through the veins.
◽ Vena Cava Filter: In patients who cannot receive a blood thinner due to other medical issues, or have developed a DVT despite already taking a blood thinner, a device known as a filter may be placed in the inferior vena cava which allows normal blood to flow through the vein and captures any possible clots.
◽ Intravascular Ultrasound: Is used to diagnose May-Thurner Syndrome, a condition in which deep veins in the pelvis are compressed by an artery. Treatment may require a stent.
Of course, we offer minimally invasive procedures which are completed in the clinic: Endovenous Radiofrequency Ablation
(VNUS Closure), VenaSeal, and Varithena foam sclerotherapy.
