About this trial
The goal of this study is to compare OTW balloon with microcatheter in the Marshall vein alcohol ablation study. The main questions it aims to answer are: • Is there a difference in the effectiveness and safety of OTW balloon and microcatheter in Marshall vein alcohol ablation? Participants will be asked to:
Undergo treatment with OTW balloon Undergo treatment with microcatheter If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare the OTW balloon group and the microcatheter group to see different effects.
