Liberation Treatment

CCSVI is a condition called "Chronic Cerebrospinal Venous Insufficiency" and was discovered by Dr. Paolo Zamboni, a vascular surgeon at the University of Ferrara in Italy. It refers to a narrowing or blockage of the primary veins draining blood from the brain to the heart. These include the jugular veins, veins along the spinal column and the azygos vein in the upper chest.
This narrowing restricts the normal outflow of blood from the brain. As a result, the blood often "refluxes" that is: it flows backwards into the brain. Some think the resulting flow and building pressure pushes blood into the tissue around vessels in the brain, resulting in toxic iron deposits that some believe may trigger inflammation, injury to brain tissue and cell death.

Dr. Zamboni has used Doppler ultrasound to scan the heads and necks of over 500 MS patients and found the blocked, narrowed and sometimes missing veins of CCSVI in almost 100 per cent of them. These problems were found only in MS patients, not in healthy people nor in those with other neurological conditions.

Doctors in the United States and Poland have also scanned a small number of MS patients and found they too have CCSVI. Dr. Michael Dake at Stanford University in California has also been scanning patients and finding a striking similarity to Zamboni's findings.

The Liberation Treatment is still an experimental treatment and is not widely offered except as part of some studies underway.

  • Hi; I think this information is great and I hope this could be study more. But I do not want to sound pesimistic or paranoic; I do not think this will be studied seriously in the states. I say this because this will jeopardize the medicines that are out there for MS and the profits the pharmaceutical companies makes from them.

    But still I will ask my Dr.

  • You have such a sweet voice. I wish I lived in the US so that I could meet you and other youtubers with MS. We could have had a meeting in the summer.
