Review of Mixed Arterial Venous Leg Ulcers (MAVLU) Disease in Contemporary Practice.
Background: Mixed Arterial and Venous Leg Ulcers (MAVLU) are challenging. Clinical evidence specific to MAVLU management is scarce. We evaluated our recent experience with MAVLU patients and reviewed current data regarding MAVLU epidemiology, aetiology, diagnostic assessment and management options.
Methods: A prospective leg ulcer database was retrospectively interrogated to determine the prevalence and clinical outcome of MAVLU over 2-year period (2021-2022). The literature was reviewed to determine if optimal treatment strategies.
Results: 307 patients attended the ulcer clinic over a 2-year period. Most were venous leg ulcers (71%), 24% were arterial and 5% were MAVLU. The highest healing rate was in MAVLU (93%), followed by (74%) and (41%), in arterial and venous leg ulcer groups, respectively.
Conclusion: Evidence-based guidelines for MAVLU remain lacking. Well-developed randomised controlled trials are warranted to guide current clinical practice.
