The Venous System• To return blood to the heart, against
the force of gravity. This takes a very dynamic system.
• To act as a reservoir to prevent intra-arterial volume overload.
• Gravity, uni-directional valves, cardiac and respiratory cycles, blood volume, and the ‘calf muscle pump’ are all major factors in venous flow.
![Page 3: Venous Disease: Peripheral and Embolic](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/55a617c31a28abec728b4589/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
The Anatomy of a Vein
• Thin walled, highly distensible, and collapsible
• Intima is composed of a nonthrombogenic endothelium with an unerlying basement membrane and an elastic lamina
• Circumferential rings of elastic tissue and smooth muscle located in the media allow for changes in caliber, limiting changes in pressure.
![Page 4: Venous Disease: Peripheral and Embolic](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/55a617c31a28abec728b4589/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The Anatomy of a Vein
• Uni-directional valves are composed of two thin cusps consisting of a fine connective tissue lattice and covered with endothelium
• The IVC, common iliacs, portal, and cranial sinuses are valveless

Lower Extremity Venous System
• Lower extremity is divided into superficial, deep, and perforating veins
![Page 8: Venous Disease: Peripheral and Embolic](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/55a617c31a28abec728b4589/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Lower Extremity Venous System
• Superficial system lies above the uppermost fascial layer of the leg and thigh: great saphenous (GSV) and small saphenous veins (SSV) and their tributaries
• The GSV originates from the dorsal pedal venous arch, anterior to the medial malleolus.
• The GSV drains into the common femoral vein at approximately 4cm inferior and lateral to the pubic tubercle
![Page 9: Venous Disease: Peripheral and Embolic](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/55a617c31a28abec728b4589/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Lower Extremity Venous System
• The SSV originates from the lateral side of the dorsal pedal arch and courses posteriorly along the calf
• The SSV course is highly variable. Usually enters the popliteal fossa and joins the popliteal vein.
• The surreal nerve accompanies the SSV along its course, providing sensation to the lateral malleolar region.
![Page 10: Venous Disease: Peripheral and Embolic](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/55a617c31a28abec728b4589/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Lower Extremity Venous System
![Page 11: Venous Disease: Peripheral and Embolic](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/55a617c31a28abec728b4589/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Lower Extremity Venous System
• The deep veins follow the course of the major arteries in the lower extremity.
• In the leg, paired veins course with the anterior tibial, posterior tibial, and peroneal arteries. These join at the knee to form the popliteal vein.
• Multiple perforator veins transverse the deep fascia to connect the superficial and deep systems.
![Page 12: Venous Disease: Peripheral and Embolic](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/55a617c31a28abec728b4589/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Lower Extremity Venous System
• The Cockett perforators are relatively consistent and drain the medial lower leg.
• The Boyd perforator veins connect the GSV to the deep system at apx 10cm below the knee and 2cm medial to the tibia.
• Venous sinuses are thin-walled, valveless, large veins located in the soleus and gastrocnemius muscles.
• Small venous channels, with valves, connect the sinuses to the main system.
![Page 13: Venous Disease: Peripheral and Embolic](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/55a617c31a28abec728b4589/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Upper Extremity Venous System
• The Upper extremity has deep and superficial venous systems.
• Deep veins are paired and follow the artery of the same name.
• The superficial veins are the basilic and cephalic and their tributaries.
![Page 14: Venous Disease: Peripheral and Embolic](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/55a617c31a28abec728b4589/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Upper Extremity Venous System
• The cephalic vein originates at the lateral wrist and courses on the ventral surface of the arm. It terminates in the infraclavicular fossa, where it joins the axillary vein.
• The basilic vein runs medially along the forearm and penetrates the deep fascia at the elbow.
• The basilic vein joins the deep brachial veins in the upper arm to become the axillary vein.
![Page 15: Venous Disease: Peripheral and Embolic](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/55a617c31a28abec728b4589/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Upper Extremity Venous System
• The axillary vein becomes the subclavian vein at the lateral boarder of the 1st rib.
• At the medial boarder of the anterior scalene muscle, the SCV (courses anterior to the anterior scalene) joins with the internal jugular vein to become the brachiocephalic vein.
• The left and right brachiocephalic veins join to form the SVC, which then drains into the right atrium.
![Page 16: Venous Disease: Peripheral and Embolic](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/55a617c31a28abec728b4589/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Chronic Venous Insufficiency
AKA: Post-thrombotic or post-phlebitic syndrome
History of significant DVT is the largest risk factor
![Page 19: Venous Disease: Peripheral and Embolic](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/55a617c31a28abec728b4589/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Chronic Venous Insufficiency
Pathophysiology:
recanalization of the deep system with resultant incompetance of the valves
high venous pressure results and subsequently promotes fluid and protein loss into the subcutaneous tissues
resultant impairment of oxygenation and metabolism lead to subcutaneous fibrosis, called liposclerosis.
![Page 20: Venous Disease: Peripheral and Embolic](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/55a617c31a28abec728b4589/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Chronic Venous InsufficiencyPathophysiology:
edema is characteristic of early post-phlebitic syndrome
chronic microscopic hemorrhages lead to deposition of hemosiderin and the characteristic brown pigmentation
![Page 21: Venous Disease: Peripheral and Embolic](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/55a617c31a28abec728b4589/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Chronic Venous Insufficiency
Pathophysiology:
ulceration frequently occurs and is characteristically located medially (above the medial malleolus)
chronic edema predisposes the patient to recurrent bouts of cellulitis
![Page 23: Venous Disease: Peripheral and Embolic](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/55a617c31a28abec728b4589/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Chronic Venous Insufficiency
Treatment:
Compression Stockings
Elevation
Una Boots
Surgical ligation of perforating veins
Surgical venous reconstruction

Varicose Veins
![Page 26: Venous Disease: Peripheral and Embolic](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/55a617c31a28abec728b4589/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Superficial Thrombophlebitis
• Aseptic thrombosis of the superficial veins
• Upper Extremities: almost always associated with an indwelling catheter (IV).– Treatment consists of removing the IV catheter and anti-
inflammatory agents (most often NSAIDs)
• Lower Extremities: usually associated with varicose veins, can occur as a result of minor trauma, dangerous only if it propagates to the femoral vein.– Therapy is supportive: Bed rest, elevation, warm compresses,
anti-inflammatory agents.– Surgical excision is only indicated when the process becomes
infective and purulent.

Deep Vein Thrombosis
Virchow’s Triad:
Endothelial damage
hypercoagulability
stasis
![Page 29: Venous Disease: Peripheral and Embolic](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/55a617c31a28abec728b4589/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Deep Vein Thrombosis
Endothelial Damage: Most commonly immune vasculitis associated. e.g. SLE, Buerger’s Disease, Giant Cell Arteritis, Takayasu Disease, Anti-cardiolipin antibodies.
Hypercoagulability: APC resistance, Anti-phospholipid syndrome, Antithrombin III deficiency, Protein C and S deficiencies, Dysfibrinogenemia.
Stasis: CHF, Hyperviscosity, Prolonged Immobility, Neurologic Disorders causeing loss of muscle pump.

Deep Vein Thrombosis
Venous thrombi are almost always redish and are always composed primarily of fibrin and RBC’s
Clinical diagnosis is notoriously innacurate
Objective testing is the cornerstone of diagnosis
Contrast Phlebography is the gold standard
Duplex Ultrasound is very accurate

Deep Vein Thrombosis
Duplex Ultrasound:
Highly sensitive and specific for femoral segment thrombosis
Loses sensitivity for isolated thrombi of the calf veins or iliac veins
Isolated iliac vein thrombis is extremely rare

Deep Vein ThrombosisIV therapy with a heparin gtt is the initial treatment
The goal is an aPTT of double the normal (60-90)
Oral therapy with Warfarin can be initiated concomitantly with the start of heparinization
The goal is an INR of 2.0
IV Heparin may be discontinued once the INR stabilizes at a therapeutic level of 2.0 – 2.5
Alternative treatment with LMWH is an option
Administered SQ daily
Dose of 1mg/kg is based on multiple level I data

Inferior Vena Cava Interruption• Absolute Indications:
1. The presence of a proximal DVT, select patients with distal DVT, and:
• An absolute contraindication to anticoagulation• Uncorrected coagulopathy• Intraventricular monitor or epidural catheter• History of heparin induced thrombocytopenia• Patelet count < 50,000• Need for major surgical procedure within 2 weeks
2. The development of a pulmonary embolus despite being on therapeutic anticoagulation therapy.
• Relative Indications: Proximal thrombus in iliacs or common femoral veins, on medical therapy for known DVT but needs major surgery, high risk trauma patients, and high risk patients who require surgery
50
![Page 51: Venous Disease: Peripheral and Embolic](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/55a617c31a28abec728b4589/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Inferior Vena Cava Interruption
• Relative Indications: – Proximal thrombus in iliacs or common femoral veins– Currently on therapy for known DVT but needs major surgery,– High risk trauma pts (spinal cord injury, GCS < 8, long bone Fx– High risk pts requiring surgery (morbidly obese, metastatic CA)
• Timing of placement:– Many reports of PE occurrence in first 24-48 hrs following injury– Incidence reaches statistical significance at 72 hrs after insult– Appropriate planning for placement should aim for the first 72
hrs following injury (ideally in first 24 hrs)
51

Inferior Vena Cava Interruption
– Non-retrievable: Permanent. For patients with high risk of future DVT or PE. Older and elderly patients.
– Retrievable : Can be removed. Use in patients who received IVCF secondary to a prophylactic indication or a temporary contraindication to anticoagulation. Also advisable in very young patients requiring IVCF placement.
• Most often removed via right internal jugular approach
• Recommended retrieval within 30 days of placement• The Bard Recovery G2 Filter is approved for
retrieval up to 150 days 52
