  • Title: State of the art of venous investigation and treatment.
    Author: Jamieson WG.
    Journal: Can J Surg; 1993 Apr; 36(2):119-28. PubMed ID: 8472220.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To discuss current investigative and treatment modalities in all venous problems, ranging from telangiectasia to chronic venous insufficiency. DATA SOURCES: A thorough review of current literature plus the author's personal experience and ideas. DATA SYNTHESIS: Clinical interest and research into venous disease is increasing. Despite advanced investigative technology, the definitive management of chronic venous insufficiency remains controversial. Deep valvular reconstruction is now possible; however, indications for this type of procedure are rare. CONCLUSION: The renewed interest in venous disease will likely lead to specific treatments for all aspects of venous disease, especially for chronic venous insufficiency.
