Abstract

Peripheral venous disease is a common, under-diagnosed, and under-treated issue. Broadly, venous disease is due to reflux resulting from superficial or deep valvular incompetence, deep venous obstruction, or a combination therein. Both superficial and deep venous diseases have a wide range of signs/symptoms, with the most advanced presentation being venous leg ulceration and secondary lymphedema, which comes with a high morbidity and cost. Historically, the two extremes of treatment include local wound care and compression stockings on the conservative side, and surgical treatment on the invasive side. Endovenous interventions have gained popularity as they can shorten wound healing and prolong recurrent ulceration, with decreased pain and superior recovery times. The evaluation and management of peripheral venous disease are further outlined in this chapter, including the various endovenous treatment options available and their techniques.
