Neuromyopathy in Venous Insufficiency
Angiology, 1988Since July, 1985, the authors have studied 23 patients with history and physical findings of venous insuffi ciency syndrome (VIS) confirmed by venous pressure, muscle biopsy, as cending and descending venography, electromyography, and nerve con duction velocity studies. Clinically, swelling appears to be the most im portant symptom, along with high ve

Angiology, 1997
Chronic venous disease of the lower limbs is one of the most common conditions affecting humankind. It has been postulated that certain workplace conditions may be risk factors for venous insufficiency and varicose veins in particular. This paper examines the evidence for a link between occupation and the prevalence of venous disease.

Chronic Venous Insufficiency Disease [PDF]
International Journal of Angiology, 1997 Chronic venous insufficiency is a debilitating condition. It affects about 0.2% of the population and is very demanding on health resources. In the UK, there are about 100,000 patients with active leg ulcers and treating these patients costs the national health service between £100 and £400,000,000 per anum.

Current Opinion in CARDIOLOGY, 1995
The consequences of chronic deep venous insufficiency are a major medical concern and result in significant loss of human productivity in addition to a significant compromise of lifestyles. The postphlebitic syndrome of chronic venous stasis and ulceration is a result of chronic venous hypertension and reflects a sequela of events occurring secondary ...

Evaluation of Venous Insufficiency
Seminars in Cutaneous Medicine and Surgery, 2005"Venous disease consists of a spectrum with significant medical and economic morbidities. For lack of exposure, however, it is a poorly understood subject. The evaluation and approach to diagnosing venous disease requires a firm understanding of venous anatomy and pathophysiology.

Phlebology: The Journal of Venous Disease, 2007
Objective: The correlation between ovarian venous insufficiency and lower limb venous insufficiency remains poorly understood. Clinically, incompetent ovarian veins in association with lower extremity varicose veins are suspected when leg varicose veins are found in atypical distributions.

Treatment of chronic venous insufficiency
Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2007Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) results from venous hypertension secondary to superficial or deep venous valvular reflux. Treatment modalities are aimed at reducing venous valvular reflux, thereby inhibiting the ensuing pathologic inflammatory process. Compression therapy using pumps, bandaging, and/or graded compression stockings is the mainstay of

Myopathy and Venous Insufficiency
Phlebology: The Journal of Venous Disease, 1987Eighty patients with severe venous insufficiency, documented by history, physical examination, venography, and venous pressures, underwent gastrocnemius muscle biopsy. Muscle specimens were analysed histologically and histochemically in order to define the nature of pathological muscle changes which occur in patients with long-standing venous ...

Pycnogenol for chronic venous insufficiency
American Journal of Health-System Pharmacy, 2011Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) is a vascular disorder affecting 1–5% of the population and is most common in the elderly.[1][1],[2][2] Complications of CVI include edema and venous stasis ulcers, which can contribute to increased morbidity and health care costs.[3][3],[4][4] Unfortunately ...

Management of Venous Insufficiency
2006Venous insufficiency is a common disorder in the Western world. Whilst often regarded as a minor condition causing mainly cosmetic problems, surveys have shown that patients are often dissatisfied with the management that they receive. Venous insufficiency is often associated with pain, and can also lead to troublesome venous ulceration which can be ...
