Hello, I want to ask if anyone knows if there is any possibility of this to work. The doctor claims to be able to fix around 1/3 of selected patients with venous leak by previously analysing by a 3D angiography the exact point of leak and performing a ligation of the necessary veins in case that the venous leak is not a very serious one.

I have heard that this is a possibility for VL thats not serious, but it needs to be done by a highly skilled vascular surgeon. Other than that I haven't heard much about it. My veinous leak was pretty bad so I didn't look much into it.
