About this book

This text evolved as a response to numerous requests to present a simplified approach to the diagnosis and management of most of the common aspects of both cosmetic and medical venous disorders. The authors, representing experienced plebologists from several different primary disciplines, have attempted to present simplistic paradigm-oriented approaches on how to thoughtfully evaluate and manage common vein issues with contemporary solutions. Several areas of phlebology were not addressed in this text. The management of vascular malformations are beyond the scope of this text and were not covered in detail. Although indications for the appropriate use of IVC filters are discussed, the details about the specific devices, their placement and removal are also beyond the scope of this text. Deep venous obstruction from prior thrombosis, venous compression by arteries such as the compression of the left common iliac vein by the right common iliac artery and pelvic venous insufficiency can now be managed with minimally invasive image guided treatments; the technical aspects of such treatments are complex and not discussed in detail in this handbook. This book will increase the therapeutic skill of the practicing phlebologist and thus increase the quality of care for patients faced with problems related to venous disorders.

Reviews

From the reviews:

“In this book, the authors deliver a straightforward guide to the diagnosis and management of venous disease. The book is marketed to clinicians involved in the treatment of venous disease, including interventional radiologists, dermatologists, and vascular surgeons. … this book serves as a starting point for the interventional radiologist or other practitioner interested in nonsurgical interventions. … This work is a well-written, concise introductory text that offers a foundation for those beginning a practice for treating venous disorders.” (Andrew J. Degnan, Radiology, Vol. 268 (1), July, 2013)

“This is a complete guide to the management and treatment of patients with superficial venous disorders, appropriate for both novices and experienced clinicians. … This book will be appreciated by the full range of practitioners, from nurses to physicians, novices to experts, interventional radiologists to dermatologists to vascular surgeons. Literally anyone who cares for patients with superficial venous disease will find value in this book. … an invaluable resource for experienced practitioners as well as a great starting point for students who are just learning.” (Scott Resnick, Doody's Book Reviews, March, 2013)
