Varicose veins are a very common problem. The precise aetiology of
primary varicose veins remains unclear. It seems likely from the
available evidence that inherited structural weakness combined with
haemodynamic or microcirculatory abnormalities eventually lead to
reduced vein wall elasticity, dilatation and the formation of
varicosities. Increasing age, female gender, parity and occupation
may all promote the development of varicose veins in susceptible
individuals. Further clinical and experimental studies are
necessary if the relative contribution of each of these factors is
to be fully elucidated. References 1. Editorial. The treatment of
