Download or read book Venous Disease written by Charles V. Ruckley and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 459 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Varicose veins are a very common problem. The precise aetiology of primary varicose veins remains unclear. It seems likely from the available evidence that inherited structural weakness combined with haemodynamic or microcirculatory abnormalities eventually lead to reduced vein wall elasticity, dilatation and the formation of varicosities. Increasing age, female gender, parity and occupation may all promote the development of varicose veins in susceptible individuals. Further clinical and experimental studies are necessary if the relative contribution of each of these factors is to be fully elucidated. References 1. Editorial. The treatment of varicose veins.

Download or read book Practical Approach to the Management and Treatment of Venous Disorders written by Neil S. Sadick and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-09-28 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text evolved as a response to numerous requests to present a simplified approach to the diagnosis and management of most of the common aspects of both cosmetic and medical venous disorders. The authors, representing experienced plebologists from several different primary disciplines, have attempted to present simplistic paradigm-oriented approaches on how to thoughtfully evaluate and manage common vein issues with contemporary solutions. Several areas of phlebology were not addressed in this text. The management of vascular malformations are beyond the scope of this text and were not covered in detail. Although indications for the appropriate use of IVC filters are discussed, the details about the specific devices, their placement and removal are also beyond the scope of this text. Deep venous obstruction from prior thrombosis, venous compression by arteries such as the compression of the left common iliac vein by the right common iliac artery and pelvic venous insufficiency can now be managed with minimally invasive image guided treatments; the technical aspects of such treatments are complex and not discussed in detail in this handbook. This book will increase the therapeutic skill of the practicing phlebologist and thus increase the quality of care for patients faced with problems related to venous disorders.

Download or read book Ultrasound examination of the lower limbs written by Musil Dalibor and published by Grada Publishing a.s.. This book was released on 2021-10-11 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph focuses on the clinical use of ultrasound in phlebology. The introduction covers the technical aspects from basic physical principles of the ultrasound signal formation and processing, principles of rheology and the Doppler effect through various ultrasound modalities to practical instructions for setting the ultrasound machine for examination of various areas of the venous system. The next part provides detailed description of the venous anatomy of the lower extremities as a reliable guide for navigating the sometimes variable vein morphology. The core of the book is a description of the principal nosological units in phlebology and methods for their sonographic diagnosis. In the first place is chronic venous disease, along with superficial and deep vein thrombosis, the post-thrombotic syndrome, congenital vascular malformations and variations, and venous aneurysms. The core of the book is the description of the main nosological entities in physiology and the methods for sonographic diagnostics.An increasingly important overlap of ultrasonography from diagnostics to therapy is outlined in chapters on the use of sonography in local venous thrombolysis and surgical treatment of chronic venous disease. The book concludes with several case reports, a practical and a synthesis of all the other chapters, a clinical outllook and a message for everyday practice. Essentially, they are an extract of why the book was created. Increasingly important is the extension of ultrasound diagnostics into therapy, which is outlined in the chapters on the use of sonography for local venous thrombolysis and surgical treatment of chronic venous diseases.
