Abstract
|
|
|
|
Venous malformations (VM) are the most common congenital vascular malformations (CVM). Varicose veins (VVs) and VM of the lower extremities can present as dilated veins and accompanying chronic venous disease symptoms, including pain and heaviness in the legs. VM can be distinguished from VVs by accurate clinical history taking, physical examination, and, most importantly, imaging. Discrimination between both diseases is critical for devising management. This review focuses on ultrasound imaging of VMs.
