New Surgery/Valve Implant
Posted: Sat Jan 25, 2025 12:04 am
Hi there,
just found out that i have venous leakage @ the age of 31, which is depressing as hell.
my question is why not much innovation is being done in this area? docs have been ligating or embolizing venous leak for many years, knowing that it lack long term efficacy? whats the logic behind this? if it didnt work in the past, how can it work now?
im no doc but why cant venous leak be repaired with some sort of graft, rather than embolization or ligation? is it that difficult? have we not progressed this much? can someone please shed light on this topic.
I just came accross new implant "venovalue" which is in the final stages to get FDA approved but thats for legs. Why cant we have something similar for venous leakage for penile?
so many good docs just resort to embolizing even though its not effective? we should probably ask them if other experimental surgeries are possible or probably start emailing enVVeno to develop valve or implant to repair venous leakage in penile
