Hemodynamic impairment, venous segmental disease, and clinical severity scoring in limbs with Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome

Abstract: Venous disease in limbs with KTS is a major source of morbidity in affected patients. Limbs with KTS are characterized by complex reflux patterns, severe valvular incompetence, calf muscle pump impairment, and venous hypertension, thus explaining the advanced clinical severity (VCSS) and CEAP grade.

“…A presença dos sintomas e sua intensidade podem variar desde a ocorrência de hemangiomas planos discretos até ectasias venosas de grande volume e grande deformidade dos membros 9 . Somente 63% dos pacientes diagnosticados com a SKTW apresentam os três sinais clássicos de malformações, hemangiomas planos e ectasias venosas com hipertrofia do segmento afetado 2,8,10 . Um total de 95% dos pacientes apresenta acometimento das extremidades, prevalecendo as inferiores.…”

“…Um total de 95% dos pacientes apresenta acometimento das extremidades, prevalecendo as inferiores. A grande maioria dos pacientes (98%) apresenta hemangiomas planos cutâneos 2,7,9,10 . Grandes dilatações venosas superficiais e profundas são comuns na SKTW e podem piorar com a idade e com a progressão da doença pelo refluxo venoso complexo, incompetência valvular, hipertensão venosa e prejuízo da função de bomba muscular 9 .…”
