“…Fegan, 36 Hobbs, 37 Lofgren, 38 and Benison 39 have pointed out that the treatment of varicosities per se may have no effect in alleviating superficial venous pressure. It is the treatment of the underlying communicating or perforating veins that drain the ankle and lower calf area that is important 22,37,40–42 . These latter vessels may be either surgically ligated 22,40–42 or sclerosed 37 .…”

These latter vessels may be either surgically ligated 22,40–42 or sclerosed 37 . Only then will the retrograde flow under high pressure via the calf‐pump be diverted upstream and away from the skin.…”

The venous anatomy of the leg is described with special reference to the superficial venous system. The histologic and histochemical differences between varicose and normal veins are presented. The pathophysiology of varicose veins is related to congential or acquired abnormalities of the deep venous system, venous valves, and/or fascial or vein wall weakness. Increased deep venous pressure may be both proximal and distal in etiology, arising from arteriovenous anastomoses, incompetent communicating veins, or venous obstruction. Primary valvular incompetence arises from venous obstruction (thrombosis), thrombophlebitis, or valvular agenesis. Secondary valvular incompetence occurs from deep venous obstruction or increased venous distensibility (usually secondary to circulating estrogens). Finally, fascial weakness of the vein wall or supporting fascia provided a genetic basis for the pathophysiology of varicose veins. Understanding the anatomy and pathophysiology of varicose veins should lead to a more rational and efficacious treatment.

IO techniques remained in use in some areas, including the USSR, Mexico, Argentina, Africa and India, but were largely forgotten elsewhere (Ugarte, 1965; Kovalevich et al, 1973; Kamerin, 1976; Kwaan et al, 1976; Valdes, 1977; Shoor et al, 1979; Albonico and Ndakaiteyi, 1984; Orlowski, 1984).…”

Intraosseous cannulation is an increasingly common means of achieving vascular access for the administration of fluids and medications during the emergent resuscitation of both paediatric and adult patients. Improved tools and techniques for intraosseous vascular access have recently been developed, enabling the healthcare provider to choose from a wide range of devices and insertion sites. Despite its increasing popularity within the adult population, and decades of use in the paediatric population, questions remain regarding the safety and efficacy of intraosseous infusion. Although various potential complications of intraosseous cannulation have been theorized, few serious complications have been reported. This article aims to provide a review of the current literature on intraosseous vascular access, including discussion on the various intraosseous devices currently available in the market, the advantages and disadvantages of intraosseous access compared to conventional vascular access methods, complications of intraosseous cannulation and current recommendations on the use of this approach.
