summary:
  GSV, great saphenous vein; SFJ, sapheno- femoral junction; EPS, external superficial epigastric vein. Discussion The constantly increasing demand for mini- invasiveness in saphenous refluxes treatment is surely pushing the phlebology world toward ET.16,17 In the last decade, ablative surgery has assisted to its progressive replacement by the foam sclerotherapy, radiofrequency, and endovenous lasers.18 Despite some analysis biases coming out from a not totally homoge- neous study population, reliable reviews sug- gest ET to be as effective as the surgery in the treatment of saphenous vein refluxes.2,19 Moreover, ET has been considered not only as efficacious as stripping in the reflux sup- pression, but also able to provide a faster and less painful post-operative course.20-22 Following the randomized controlled trials and network meta-analysis pointing out the endovenous performances, up to now, in tech- nically suitable cases, the international guide- lines favor ablative ET over open surgery with a Grade 1 B evidence.23 The same literature confirms that techno- logical advancement through the last decade has offered a better chance of improved treat- ment in terms of mini-invasiveness of the pro- cedure and post-operative quality of life.

  The WAVES trial is a single-centre study evaluating the VenaSeal system in the treat- ment of one or more incompetent N2 veins (greater saphenous vein, small saphenous vein or anterior accessory saphenous vein) with no postoperative compression stockings. From this point of view WAVES trial differs from the VeClose trial, which compared cyano- acrylate embolization and radiofrequency abla- tion for incompetent great saphenous veins.

This could correspond with the tiny refluxing veins passing through the surrounding lymph nodes, often seen at postoperative duplex ultrasound of the groin (Figure 6A and 6B).10 Further study of the lymph nodes by means of high definition ultrasound before and after surgery at the SFJ may help to clarify the role of lymph nodes and lymphovenous connections in varicose vein recurrence.

summary:
  The leading hemodynamic cause is represented by venous hypertension, affecting the venous macro- and micro-circulation, which is able to induce mor- phologic, functional and biochemical alter- ations in postcapillary venules and in the sur- rounding tissue microenvironment.2 In this regard, inflammatory processes by leukocytes and macrophages affect the venous endothelium, promoting a complex succession of events involving the activation of adhesion molecules, chemokines, cytokines, growth fac- tors, and proteases which cause endothelial dysfunction and dysregulation, compromising tissue integrity and finally lead to dermal dam- age and ulcer development.3 A critical aspect for treating venous leg ulcer is correcting the abnormal venous hemody- namics by compression therapy. In this regard, it has been investigated in venous leg ulcer tis- sues the effect of sustained limb compression of 30 mmHg (or greater) for 4 weeks on ulcer healing rates, demonstrating that stromelysin matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-3, collage- nase MMP-8 and gelatinase MMP-9 were sig- nificantly reduced after the compression treat- ment, and suggesting that a down-regulation of proteinases in ulcer tissue microenviron- ment by compression may represent a possible mechanism (in conjunction to the decrease of inflammation) to counteract the progression of CVI and improve venous ulcer healing.15 More recently, it has been reported that venous ulcers treated with a multi-layer bandaging system showed decreased plasma levels of MMP-9, TIMP-1, and MMP-2/TIMP-2 ratio in healed wounds.16 Finally, a recent randomized placebo-con- trolled trial assessed the efficacy of elastic compression stocking to prevent post-throm- Correspondence: Ferdinando Mannello, Department of Biomolecular Sciences, University of Urbino Carlo Bo, via Aurelio Saffi 2, 61029 Urbino (PU), Italy.

  The extra-cranial (EC) cerebro-spinal venous system (ECCSV) form a complex valves deficient vascular anastomotic system with the exception of IJV, which has proximal valve systems approximately in 85% of the population.3 Its physiological function is fundamental for the maintenance of normal brain function.4 The combination of morphological and hemodynamic parameters of the Echo-Color-Doppler (ECD) high resolution represents an ideal direct and real-time method for the study of hemodynamics of cerebral venous outflow. We expect to be able to evaluate cerebral venous outflow with ECD and obtain IJV and VV measurements in all subjects, both at sea level and at high altitude.

  After one year more than 100 articles had been published in the scientific literature of Europe and America.4,5 In December 1884, at the New York Roosevelt Hospital Outpatient Department, William Halstead and his associates (R. Hall in particular) were able to obtain the block of the sensory nerves of the face and the arm;6 after repeated self-experimentation trials of the anesthetic power of the solution, they demonstrated that the anesthetic effect of cocaine could be transmitted to deeper structures, in all the parts of the body, through an injection who could block the transmission of the nervous sensation.2 In 1885 Halstead published his practical comments on the use and abuse of cocaine:7,8 based on the experience of more than 1000 of cases treated in local anesthesia at the Johns Hopkins Hospital. He submitted to publication very few other papers on the subject and his contribution to the development of local anesthesia was stated only in later years.

This can indicate 2 hypotheses: 1) residual veins can easily recur in the short term; 2) the role of NN should be mainly related with a longer term recurrence, however the responsibility of anatomical residuals must be assumed in the long term too.

More than one page in the paper is used to explain that CHIVA and OB CHIVA are two different strategies, which use also different tactics.

The described narrowing of deep veins in the standing and prone position, but not in the supine position points to the fact that the config- uration of the muscle compartments which change in every body position plays a major role on the embedded veins.

Phlébologie 2013;66:51-4. Stefano Ricci Abstract For veins exceeding 1 cm of diameter, poorer outcome is expected as the occlusion rate of great or small saphenous veins (GSVs and SSVs, respectively). No patient referred extreme pain during laser procedure, while in 8 cases energy adjustment was required to avoid discomfort.

It was actually with the participation of your Institute of Radiology at Amsterdam that the damaging of the cortical grey matter on the part of venous trunks and branches was made evident in MS for the first time2 and it was your very institute that first revealed in vivo, in seventeen patients with MS, two facts disclosed until then only in general and in separate post mortem specimens: i) the distribution of MS lesions in the brain follows a specific pattern; ii) the lesions’ form and orientation appears determined by the course of veins.3 The unparalleled nature of these features of MS has been pointed out by numerous observers without ever being granted due attention in clinical MS research.

  It is of interest to notice that altogether the results of these trials showed substantially lower bleeding rates in VTE patients compared with results in recent clinical trials on DOACs use in patients with non valvular atrial fibrilla- tion, a finding that could be due to the usually older age of the latter versus VTE patients (with more chronic medical conditions and concurrent medications) and the shorter dura- tion of the studies in VTE patients.

  Control of lower extremity edema in patients with diabetes: double blind randomized controlled trial assessing the efficacy of mild compression diabetic socks

summary:
  A four-week open label pilot study involving 20 subjects with diabetes and lower extremity edema sug- gested diabetic socks designed to provide mild compression (18-25 mmHg) (Sigvaris Inc, Peachtree City, GA, USA) can be used to decrease lower leg edema without com- promising vascular flow.16 The primary objective of this five week, multi-center, double blind randomized controlled trial was to assess the effectiveness of a diabetic sock that provides mild compression (18-25 mmHg) as compared to a non-compression diabetic sock in patients with both diabetes and lower extremity edema. Once systemic pathology has been managed or ruled out, peripheral edema is most often treated with graduated compres- sion therapy.7-9 However, patients with dia- betes have a 2-5 times greater risk for devel- oping peripheral arterial disease (PAD)10-12 as compared to those without diabetes, and compression therapy has long been consid- ered risky practice in patients with diabetes because of the fear of compromising vascu- larity.13-15 As a result, foot elevation as opposed to graduated compression has gen- erally been recommended to reduce lower extremity edema in diabetic patients, and the diabetic socks currently advocated by healthcare professionals offer either no compression or minimal compression, no greater than 8-15 mmHg, to preemptively guard against exacerbating symptoms of lower extremity PAD.

summary:
  Several experimental studies have clearly shown that inelastic compression can exert a significantly higher pressure compared with elastic both in supine and standing position and during work.18-20 By a general physics definition, elastic material tends to return to its original length once stretched; therefore it will not be tolerat- ed if highly stretched to exert high pressure (which could be termed the squeezing effect). It could be demonstrated that higher sitting and standing compression pressure is posi- tively correlated with a reduction of venous reflux even when the pressure at application of the different materials is the same.23,24 The high pressure amplitudes during active or pas- sive movements correlate with a higher increase of venous pumping function.25 Measuring the ejection fraction of the calf pump it could be demonstrated that inelastic bandages revealed a significantly higher increase of venous pumping function com- pared with elastic bandages applied with the same resting pressure.

  Ultrasound-guided perisaphenous tumescence infiltration improves the outcomes of long catheter foam sclerotherapy combined with phlebectomy of the varicose tributaries

summary:
  UGFS has been proved effective and safe in the treatment of great saphenous vein (GSV), small saphenous vein, tributaries, perforators, recurrences and venous malformations.3 Recent systematic reviews show an overall inferiority, in terms of venous occlusion rate, of UGFS in comparison to other endovenous techniques, such as laser and radiofrequency, or to surgery.4-8 For UGFS most clinical series show an increased recanalization rate for larg- er saphenous diameters,9-11 which is likely due to the higher amount of blood, hence to a high- er dilution and especially in the deactivation of sclerosant drug by blood protein binding.12-16 The peri-saphenous infiltration of tumes- cence solution (PST) is performed in endove- nous thermal ablation to reduce the venous diameter, thus resulting in a smaller amount of blood within the target vein, to reduce/abol- ish procedure-related pain and protect the peri-saphenous tissues.17,18 Aim of the study was to assess if PST, mini- mizing the saphenous caliber prior to foam delivery, and reducing venous blood content and blood inflow from tributaries and perfora- tors into the saphenous stem, may improve the outcome as regards occlusion rate and vari- cose vein clinical resolution.

  A time-dependent multi-layered mathematical model of filtration and solute exchange, the revised Starling principle and the Landis experiments

summary:
  The volumetric flux per unit area (JV/A) of plasma through cap- illary wall is controlled by the Starling equation:3 JV/A = Lp[(pc–po)– σ(Πc–Πo)], (1) where p and Π indicate fluid pressure and osmotic pressure, respectively, while the subscript indicates where the pressures are considered, with c referring to the lumen of the capillary and o referring to the interstitium, outside the microvessel. This causes a temporary reversal volumetric flow, which induces an increase of solute con- centration and therefore of osmotic pressure in the outer portion of the glycocalyx and in the clefts (Figure 4B).

Specialist clinicians in the UK do not promote the use of compression above 40 mmHg; there is the assumption that this is already high compression and is the upper limit.

  In procedures such as Endovenous Laser Therapy, closure of the GSV is limited to with- in 2-3 cm distal to the SFJ in order to spare the CFV from treatment effects and leaves a resid- ual untreated proximal GSV stump.14 Initially, this stump was thought to allow normal drainage of SFJ tributaries and prevent recur- rence associated with these vessels as seen after venous surgery with the traditional liga- tion and crossectomy.15 The variability of the distances of these tributaries from the SFJ and their variable level of conjoining with each other before entering the GSV may result in a variably draining stump. Interestingly, a recent report by Tasch and Brenner12 documented a 21% incidence of ostial GSV valves, which is highly congruent with our reported 24% inci- dence (18/75).

  Storms, hanged pirates, anemia, exsanguination: the contributions of Monro, Kellie and Abercrombie in understanding intracranial blood circulation

summary:
  Abercrombie (Kellie expressed this with very similar words) stated that: The crani- um is a complete sphere of bone, which is exactly filled by its contents, the brain, and by which the brain is closely shut up from atmos- pheric pressure, and from all influence from without except what is communicated through the blood vessels which enter it.6 Therefore the notion of a rigid case completely filled with the intracranial non-compressible content (the brain alone or brain plus fluids-blood and CSF- being fluid non-compressible too) constituted the doctrine starting point instead of the con- clusion. This law is now widely accepted and has been used as a physiological basis in order to explain what occurs in case of increased intracranial pressure (especially due to a for- eign body, such as a tumor) or in case of decreased intracranial pressure, as in the case of CSF leaks (intracranial hypotension).1 This doctrine is very easy to be understood and has been expressed so as to be scientifi- cally reproducible: a mathematical formula (brain vol +

The compression can also be applied in a discontinuous, and even paroxysmal mode: i) equal pressure: nothing happens and the tissue fluids settle in depth; ii) degressive compression with low pressure gradient (=existing pressotherapies, less than 200 mmHg): the action is absorbed quickly in the first support tissues, in pro- portion to the magnitude of the applied pressure gradient; iii) this explains the major physiological interest of applaing high pressure gradients, between 200 mmHg and 760 mmHg (level of the mercu- ry pressotherapy).

  The sapheno-femoral junction valvuloplasty in the post-thrombotic syndrome: a proposal with the use of a new device

summary:
  As to the band- ing techniques, they have been used by a few groups, mainly in deep venous system, common- ly in small groups of patients.8-12 Among them, one of the Authors obtained deep valve compe- tence in 78 percent of cases at long-term follow- up,10 but inferior results for SFJ valves. Conclusions In case of venous valve incompetence with free-floating US-visible valve cusps, the SFJ stretching valvuloplasty by OSES device (V- OSES) is technically feasible, simple and safe.

  A new stocking compression system with a low well-defined resting pressure and a high working pressure

summary:
  The low resting pressure and high working pressure gives the system a high SSI. There is reason to assume that the low resting pressure and high working pressure may be maintained over time even after reduction of oedema by opening and closing the front patch on the system, since this approach has successfully been used previously.12 Future studies should investigate the pressure over time as well as the haemodynamic effectiveness of the system.

summary:
  In this perspective, and inspiring to Zamboni’s editorial,6 varicosities phlebec- tomy and/or sclerotherapy would be the prevalent required action while GSV stem closure should be re-discussed, giving pref- erence, when needed (i.e., more than 6-7 mm diameter, >1 second reflux, >C3, etc.) to GSV conservative treatments (CHIVA, ASVAL, isolated crossectomy), or scle- rotherapy, that are cheap, do not need tech- nical (expensive) tools, may be office based, may be easily repeated, and finally have even better cosmetic results. A final comment and a question: devel- opment in venous treatment goes towards the invention of new technology, high costs being the moving power (laser, RF, steam, glue, industrial foam, robot?); progress in venous treatment is the search for new ways of doing simpler and cheaper (handmade foam, hook, compression, conservation).

  Jan Schuren Retired from 3M Health Care, Neuss, Germany Introduction In 2014, the results were published of a randomised placebo-controlled trial to eval- uate the effects of compression stockings after deep venous thrombosis (DVT to pre- vent a post thrombotic syndrome (PTS). This study is generally referred to as the SOX-trial.1 Shortly after its publication, this study was analysed and, on behalf of the German Society of Phlebology, the authors state that wearing compression stockings after deep venous thrombosis of the leg is still advis- able.2 An expert opinion, based on many years of experience and the result of two systematic reviews and meta-analyses, states that the long term use of compression stockings may reduce the incidence and severity of a post-thrombotic syndrome.3 This article reviews the literature and tries to answer the question: where is the evi- dence?
