Venous disorders: Overview of current practice

Venous disease often is overlooked until the problems it causes become severe. When patients present with concomitant diseases or disorders, those disorders may take priority both in the patient’s mind and the caregiver’s. Fortunately, there has been an increasing interest in the diagnoses and treatment of venous disorders and with this is a renewed interest in early diagnosis of venous problems and identification of individuals at risk for venous problems.
