“…Intra-arterial injection is one of the most serious complications of sclerotherapy, which may range from no sequelae to necrosis of the skin, subcutaneous tissue and/or muscle (4). Inadvertent injection into dermal arterioles may be the most common cause of cutaneous ulceration (5).…”

Increased venous pressure causes dilation of normal leg veins creating varicose or spider veins. This can be a consequence of loss of smooth muscle tone causing valvular insufficiency or more rarely deep vein thrombosis. The treatment of choice for eliminating spider veins of the leg is sclerotherapy, although the use of laser technology as a safe and relatively painless alternative has been long anticipated.

“…There is an estimated incidence < 0.25%, which is in accordance with the Australian experience 25 . This can be explained because in 4% the telangiectasias connect with the arterial system 26 . Bihari and Magyar were able to show arteriovenous shunting (AVS) under leg telangiectasias in 72.2% of cases.…”

Leg telangiectasia is more difficult to treat than facial telangiectasia. Investigations may be needed to elucidate the origin of the telangiectasia. In cases of venous insufficiency, investigation of venous haemodynamics is desirable. Treatment is primarily by sclerotherapy, including foam sclerotherapy. Light and laser treatments are also effective, especially for telangiectasia up to 1 mm in diameter. New developments incorporate longer pulse durations, such as frequency-doubled neodynium YAG and diode lasers as well as intense pulsed light. After all treatment methods, compression for 48 h using pads, bandages or hosiery is recommended. As with all cosmetic procedures, patients need to be tutored comprehensively about anticipated results and possible complications or side-effects.
