Embolisation is used to treat a wide variety of conditions affecting different organs of the human body. The procedure is a minimally-invasive alternative to surgery. The purpose of embolisation is to prevent blood flow to an area of the body, which effectively can shrink a tumour or block an aneurysm. At Endovascular WA we use embolisation to treat vascular conditions including:
Uterine Fibroids
Varicocele
Pelvic congestion syndrome

- Minimally invasive
