The advent of foam sclerotherapy has been one of the most important
developments in the field of phlebology. Just as surgery has
evolved into more minimal invasion, so has the treatment of
varicose veins. Foam sclerotherapy is quick, efficient, easy to use
and inexpensive, and is widely believed to become the dominant form
of therapy for varicose veins. Foam Sclerotherapy: A Textbook
explores the key role of foam in the treatment of venous
insufficiency, provides authoritative and comprehensive information
and examines the advantages and drawbacks of this method in detail.
Written by experts from four continents, the book is divided into
three sections: Theory, Practice, and Special Considerations, and
includes chapters on: The history of sclerosant foams Legal
guidelines Ultrasound guidance Studies on safety Treatment of
venous malformations Foam Sclerotherapy: A Textbook is an essential
textbook for all phlebologists, general surgeons, vascular
surgeons, dermatologists, family physicians and gynaecologists who
treat varicose veins, either full time or occasionally.
One of the only books discussing new advances in venous ulcer
therapy, "Venous Ulcers" provides a comprehensive look at the
molecular biology and pathophysiology of venous ulcers. It
discusses the many new treatments currently being used that offer
non-invasive treatment options to patients with venous ulcerations.
* Leg ulcers are defined as a discontinuity of the epithelial
surface; a local defect or excavation of the surface of the
skin.
* Venous ulceration tends to take a number of months to heal
followed by frequent relapse to further episodes.
* This work discusses the newest tools of patient investigation
that have emerged in recent years that help to shorten patient
recovery times and provide less invasive treatments
Since its initial publication nearly a decade ago, The Vein Book
continues to serves as the ultimate comprehensive resource on
venous disease. Upholding its reputation as the go-to reference for
complete, authoritative, and up-to-date information about venous
function and dysfunction, this second edition effectively bridges
the gap between clinical medicine and basic science, suitable both
for the seasoned surgeon as well as the medical student. The book
is divided into five essential sections: basic considerations,
primary superficial venous insufficiency, venous thromboembolism,
chronic venous insufficiency, and congenital venous malformations.
The book covers the entire spectrum of venous conditions from
clarification of the pathophysiology of venous insufficiency,
molecular mechanisms in the cause of varicose veins, new treatment
options for varicose veins and spider veins, startling new
treatment for venous thromboembolic disease, and effective
treatment for leg ulcers. More user-friendly and encyclopedic than
ever, The Vein Book is still a must-have for vascular surgeons,
phlebologists, interventional radiologists, research scientists,
epidemiologists, and surgeons at all levels.
