VENOUS LEG ULCERS AND ARTHROPATHY
Rheumatology, 1990Reduced ankle mobility impairs the venous muscle pump and this leads to an increase in mean venous pressure in the lower leg. We have previously shown that pressure-induced venous distension leads to cutaneous hypoxia which is caused by arteriolar vasoconstriction in response to a spinal reflex.

Techniques in Vascular and Interventional Radiology, 2003
In 1837, Piorry, a French professor of medicine stated, "It is rather difficult to understand why the investigation of veins has been passed over almost in silence, while such a great diagnostic value has been attached to the investigation of arteries." Even today, our understanding of venous disease pales in comparison to our understanding of arterial

Pathophysiology of Venous Leg Ulceration
International Journal of Microcirculation, 2008The currently favoured hypothesis for the link between the raised venous pressure of chronic venous insufficiency and venous ulceration is based on the intermittent inappropriate activation of white blood cells. The damage initiated by the oxidative burst of the leucocyte leads to endothelial dysfunction, interstitial oedema, microthrombi and long-term
