Varicose Veins-1판

Chronic venous disease is a common condition, with a prevalence as high as 50% in industrialized countries worldwide. 
Of those, about 20-25% of women and 10-15% of men have visible varicose veins. Varicose vein treatment has become an 
increasingly multidisciplinary field, and one that has seen cutting-edge advances and significant growth.

Felipe B. Collares, Salomao Faintuch, and a team of venous disease experts have compiled, Varicose Veins, a concise 
book that covers the full range of interventional procedures for venous insufficiency. Following introductory chapters 
on anatomy and pathophysiology, the authors guide readers through the clinical exam, imaging, compression therapy, and 
various minimally invasive techniques. Highly practical and an affordable alternative to larger published tomes.

Key Highlights

Illustrations delineate anatomy and specific treatment modalities 
Clinical pearls on patient safety and preventing complications
