Sclerotherapy is an injection procedure to treat blood vessel
malformations including spider veins and varicose veins. The
procedure involves injection of a sterile solution into the veins
using a very fine needle. This solution irritates the vein lining
causing it to undergo fibrosis and eventually disappear. This book
provides an introduction to sclerotherapy for practising
dermatologists. Beginning with an overview of venous anatomy, the
next chapters examine the pathophysiology of varicose veins and
clinical signs of venous insufficiency. The following sections
explain the techniques of sclerotherapy and potential
complications. The book concludes with discussion on sclerotherapy
for cystic and benign vascular lesions, and surgical treatment of
varicose veins. Clinical photographs and figures further enhance
the comprehensive text. Key points Provides an overview of
