“…In some of our cases with superficial R combined with incompetent PVs the standing pressure measured in the PTV was significantly higher (Fig. 3, Table 3) in confirmation of the "ankle blow out syndrome" described by Cockett and Jones [20]. At the opposite, in the same cases (GSV R + incompetent PVs) the ambulatory VPI of PTV was significantly lower (Fig.…”

Background: The diagnostic evaluation of chronic venous disease (CVD) of the lower limbs (LLs) is mainly based on duplex ultrasound (DUS). Invasive venous pressure measurements (VPMs) are seldom performed in specialized centers with still controversial results. The noninvasive Doppler method has not been accepted as a validate method as the emerging values are influenced by several environmental and biological factors, and do not correspond to hydrostatic pressure. Therefore, these values will be defined as venous pressure index (VPI). In our previous experience, the VPI was accepted by patients in the daily practice, and the VPI was significantly correlated with C of C.E.A.P. (P < 0.05 -0.0001) and furnished useful hemodynamic information. This study was to verify the role and clinical implications of the VPI measurements in the pathophysiology and diagnostics of superficial CVD of the LL.

“…Reflux within incompetent superficial veins triggers perforator veins to enlarge and become incompetent (10,11). High flow from the deep venous system during muscular contraction rendering perforating veins incompetent was a previously suggested theory, that is now widely abandoned (12,13). Perforator vein incompetence generally follows reflux within the superficial veins in a temporal fashion, supporting the former theory (9,14).…”

“…There are five clinically important groups of direct perforating veins, those of the foot, of the medial, posterolateral and anterior calf, and of the thigh. [14][15][16][17][18][19][20] In the foot there is a large perforator in the first interosseous space that connects the superficial, dorsal venous arch with the dorsalis pedis veins (Fig. 1).…”
