Anatomical Extent of Venous Reflux

Abstract: Despite the recognition of the importance of the anatomical extent of venous reflux, its description in medical literature is inconsistent in terms and classifications. Recent international consensus documents provide clear definitions for the three main classes of reflux: segmental, multi-segmental, and axial. This report addresses the most important aspects of the standard definitions of the anatomical extent of venous reflux, the differences between the three classes of reflux, and the challenges of impleme… Show more

“…Preoperative ultrasound mapping is crucial for determining the extent of reflux along the GSV, minimizing unnecessary removal of non-refluxing segments and avoiding complications associated with extensive surgery, including nerve damage. Venous reflux can be classified as segmental, multi-segmental, or axial, with axial and multi-segmental reflux being more prevalent in advanced stages of venous disease (11). Our study focused on axial reflux, justifying the removal of the entire length of refluxing segments.…”

“…Either of those determines a valve malfunction, which leads to defective blood circulation and degree of stasis. Even though it is true that valve malfunction determines valve reflux, a description of reflux with correct valve function was described [19], but this subject exceeds the purpose of this manuscript.…”

“…Jeder dieser Zustände führt zu einer Funktionsstörung der Klappe, die wiederum zu einer gestörten Blutzirkulation und Stauung führt. Auch wenn es richtig ist, dass eine Klappeninsuffizienz zu einem Klappenreflux führt, wurde ein Reflux auch bei korrekter Klappenfunktion beschrieben[19]. Allerdings sprengt dieses Thema den Rahmen dieses Manuskripts.Schließlich haben Tauraginskii RA et al noch den Effekt der Wadenpumpe auf die mit Ultraschall bestimmten venösen Refluxparameter bestimmt.…”
