<p>The role of perforator vein incompetence (PVI) in the development of venous hypertension, chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) and ulceration has been well recognized for over a century. However, while minimally invasive endovenous ablative therapies have revolutionized the management of supe...

| 520 | |a <p>The role of perforator vein incompetence (PVI) in the development of venous hypertension, chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) and ulceration has been well recognized for over a century. However, while minimally invasive endovenous ablative therapies have revolutionized the management of superficial truncal vein insufficiency, the definitive indications for intervention and management of PVI still remains somewhat debatable and unclear.
