An endoscopic sclerotherapy needle is a single-use catheter with a needle that extends and retracts inside its own sheath. It delivers a sclerosing agent into varices of the digestive tract, such as esophageal varices. Sclerotherapy of leg veins is a different procedure. The needle locks out and retracts with one hand, so the other hand stays on the scope.
