Sclerotherapy is a medical procedure in which a solution is injected into blood vessels or lymphatic channels to irritate their lining and cause them to collapse, fade, and be reabsorbed. It is commonly used to treat varicose veins and certain vascular malformations. The term combines sclerosis and therapy to describe this therapeutic sclerosis-inducing process.
