Our results do not confirm the theory that lab values of elevated serum ferritin correlate with pigmentation postsclerotherapy. Further study of the correlation between postsclerotic pigmentation and serum ferritin levels are needed. One would anticipate that if a true correlation existed, then an extreme case such as this would clearly support this theory.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
