Page 11 Lower extremity venous insufficiency MUST be evaluated and treated as a part of ‘Infra-diaphragmatic venous disease’. ‘A FIVE PART SERIES’ By Sanjiv Lakhanpal, MD, FACS Summary: Our venous system from toes to the right atrium is one continuous system of fancy pipes with anatomic and physiological enhancements to facilitate venous return to the heart. Compartmentalizing the evaluation of this one single system of veins only makes sense for lower grades (CEAP 0-1) of venous insufficiency in the legs. For higher grades (CEAP 2-6) of venous insufficiency it is essential to evaluate the entire infra-diaphragmatic venous system. In this five part review I will lay out the compelling case for such clinical evaluation and for appropriate treatment tailored to the needs of the individual patient if the need is substantiated by a more detailed diagnostic workup. This review will be broken down into the following parts: Editor-in-Chief, President & CEO, Center for Vein Restoration Sanjiv Lakhanpal, MD, FACS Part I: The anatomic logic Part III: Pathologic Part V: Treatment of for evaluation of the entire conditions leading to Infra-diaphragmatic infra-diaphragmatic venous post-ambulatory venous venous insufficiency, system in patients with hypertension in the lower venous diseases of the advanced lower extremity extremities. lower extremity and Pelvic venous disease.

It is duplicated in the calf in 25% and in the thigh in 8%.

Varicosities invariably lie superficial to the superficial (saphenous fascia - GSV, membranous layer - SSV) fascia, free of any fascial restraints. Reticular veins lie in the sub-dermal connective tissue and the so-called pin veins or spider veins are caused by the dilatation of the dermal plexus of veins. Saphenous fascia is an additional layer of fascia which encapsulates the great saphenous vein. The great and the small saphenous veins are interfascial veins.

Continued from Page 2 The deep veins in general follow the corresponding arteries. The deep plantar venous arch from around the heads of the metatarsals continues as the medial and lateral plantar veins, which both become the posterior tibial veins behind the medial ankle. In over 80% of the samples they are paired and in about 10% they are triplicate. They perforate the soleus muscle close to its bony arcade and continue as the popliteal vein. The peroneal veins originate in the distal third of the calf. The peroneal receives the large soleal veins. The peroneal and the posterior tibial have constant connections in the distal leg. The peroneal and the posterior tibial form the TP trunk which then joins the popliteal. On the dorsum of the foot the major deep veins continue as the dorsalis pedis veins. The anterior tibial veins ascend in the anterior compartment. The popliteal vein is formed by Image 005 the confluence of the calf veins. The popliteal and the femoral veins run around the arteries of the same name. The femoral vein is the continuation of the popliteal vein. The deep femoral vein usually communicates with the popliteal vein either directly or through tributaries. The deep veins of the lower extremity: Tibial veins (deep venous system) The sapheno femoral junction and communications with the superficial form by the confluence of the medial and lateral planter veins while on the veins of the lower extremity and the pelvic/abdominal veins: dorsum of the foot the major deep veins continue as the dorsalis pedis vein. The tributaries of the GSV, namely the superficial circumflex iliac vein, the superficial external pudendal vein and the superficial epigastric vein, communicate freely with the deep veins with similar names that drain into the External iliac vein.

By: Vinay Satwah DO, FACOI, RPVI Many women with Pelvic Congestion Syndrome spend years trying to get an answer as to why they have this chronic pelvic pain. Pelvic Congestion Syndrome is an under-diagnosed condition which is associated with venous disease in the pelvic area, lower abdomen and thighs. Often accompanied by chronic pelvic pain and/or pressure, it is estimated that this condition affects more than one third of all women. Sometimes suffering with this VENOGRAM: THE MOST ACCURATE TEST condition for years, many of these women are told the problem is not due to a specific medical cause and may be “all in their FOR DIAGNOSIS head.” However, recent advancements have allowed physicians Many women with Pelvic Congestion Syndrome spend years at Center for Vein Restoration to show that the pelvic pain may trying to get an answer to why they have this chronic pelvic be due to varicose vein reflux causing pelvic venous insufficiency. pain.

  • Corona Mortis: the Abnormal Obturator Vessels in Filipino Cadavers
    ORIGINAL ARTICLE Corona Mortis: the Abnormal Obturator Vessels in Filipino Cadavers Imelda A. Luna Department of Anatomy, College of Medicine, University of the Philippines Manila ABSTRACT Objectives. This is a descriptive study to determine the origin of abnormal obturator arteries, the drainage of abnormal obturator veins, and if any anastomoses exist between these abnormal vessels in Filipino cadavers. Methods. A total of 54 cadaver halves, 50 dissected by UP medical students and 4 by UP Dentistry students were included in this survey. Results. Results showed the abnormal obturator arteries arising from the inferior epigastric arteries in 7 halves (12.96%) and the abnormal communicating veins draining into the inferior epigastric or external iliac veins in 16 (29.62%). There were also arterial anastomoses in 5 (9.25%) with the inferior epigastric artery, and venous anastomoses in 16 (29.62%) with the inferior epigastric or external iliac veins. Bilateral abnormalities were noted in a total 6 cadavers, 3 with both arterial and venous, and the remaining 3 with only venous anastomoses. Conclusion. It is important to be aware of the presence of these abnormalities that if found during surgery, must first be ligated to avoid intraoperative bleeding complications. Key Words: obturator vessels, abnormal, corona mortis INtroDUCTION The main artery to the pelvic region is the internal iliac artery (IIA) with two exceptions: the ovarian/testicular artery arises directly from the aorta and the superior rectal artery from the inferior mesenteric artery (IMA). The internal iliac or hypogastric artery is one of the most variable arterial systems of the human body, its parietal branches, particularly the obturator artery (OBA) accounts for most of its variability.

The evaluation includes the assessment of abdominal and pelvic venous compressions, abdominal and pelvic venous insufficiency and evaluation of the presence or absence of pelvic varicosities. Note: Abdominal and pelvic venous disorders can be previously referred to as pelvic congestion syndrome or PCS; however, with the expansion of research into the abdominal and pelvic venous system updated nomenclature is imperative to the proper diagnosis and treatment of these conditions.

Ohta) With 8 Figures in 2 Plates and 2 Tables -Received for Publication, July 24, 1971- A case of the so-called bilateral superior venae cavae after the persistence of the left superior vena cava has appeared relatively frequent. The present authors would like to make a report on such a persistence of the left superior vena cava, which was found in a routine dissection cadaver of their school. This case is accompanied by other anomalies on the venous system ; a complete pair of the azygos veins, the double subclavian veins of the right side and the ring-formation in the left external iliac vein. Findings Cadaver : Mediiim nourished male (Japanese), about 157 cm in stature. No other anomaly in the heart as well as in the great arteries is recognized. The extracted heart is about 350 gm in weight and about 380 ml in volume. A. Bilateral superior venae cavae 1) Right superior vena cava (figs. 1, 2, 4) It measures about 23 mm in width at origin, about 25 mm at the pericardiac end, and about 31 mm at the opening to the right atrium ; about 55 mm in length up to the pericardium and about 80 mm to the opening. The vein is formed in the usual way by the union of the right This report was announced at the forty-sixth meeting of Kinki-district of the Japanese Association of Anatomists, February, 1971,Kyoto.
