Abstrakt: The development of a patented bipolar "coagulation fork", applied in combination with a customized microprocessor-controlled high-frequency unit, constitutes a break-through in the treatment of very small varicose veins of less than 0.5 mm in diameter, commonly described as spider veins, that cannot be removed through sclerotherapy. The technique is quite simple and does not require any kind of anesthesia. It is also best suited to treat teleangiectases on the face. Follow-up treatment is not required.
