Abstract
This review provides a summary of current practice patterns in managing venous ulcers. The authors will describe the workup for venous ulcers, including differentiation of symptoms, physical examination, and imaging to guide the most effective treatment course for each patient. An overview of conservative management and minimally invasive treatment options for venous ulcers will be provided with a specific focus on periulcer foam sclerotherapy to aid in preventing ulcer recurrence and promoting healing. We will give interventional troubleshooting techniques for challenging patient presentations.
期刊介绍:
Interventional radiology is an area of clinical diagnosis and management that is highly technique-oriented. Therefore, the format of this quarterly journal, which combines the visual impact of an atlas with the currency of a journal, lends itself perfectly to presenting the topics. Each issue is guest edited by a leader in the field and is focused on a single clinical technique or problem. The presentation is enhanced by superb illustrations and descriptive narrative outlining the steps of a particular procedure. Interventional radiologists, neuroradiologists, vascular surgeons and neurosurgeons will find this a useful addition to the clinical literature.
