Phlebolymphology N°115 – Editorial
Dear Readers,
In this special issue of Phlebolymphology, the content is as below:
Catheter-directed interventions for acute iliofemoral deep vein thrombosis have been increasingly used over the past decade to alleviate early symptoms and reduce the incidence and severity of postthrombotic syndrome. The article by E. AVGERINOS (Greece) et al addresses the advantages of early thrombus removal and how to perfect technical and clinical outcomes.
There are several factors associated with residual edema after venous interventions, and this edema can worsen with time. The article by N. LABROPOULOS (USA) et al analyzes when and why residual edema occurs after venous interventions from diverse perspectives while also discussing a patient case from real-life practice.
The article by A. GASPARIS (USA) et al also elaborates on the residual edema following venous intervention, particularly focusing on prevention and management to improve patient outcomes and quality of life.
In patients with chronic obstruction, despite the availability of various treatment modalities, improving clinical outcomes remains a challenging task for health care professionals. The article by H. JALAIE (Germany) et al aims to explore innovative strategies and evidence-based approaches to enhance the management and long-term outcomes of patients with chronic venous obstruction.
The last part of this special issue is dedicated to the abstracts presented at the Venous Symposium – Europe, which was held in Athens, Greece on October 17-19, 2024 to share novelties and research in venous disease.
Enjoy reading this issue!
