Venous occlusive diseases include acute deep vein thrombosis, as well as chronic iliac vein compression syndrome and post thrombotic syndrome. These diseases can lead to severe venous hypertension which greatly affect life quality. So domestic and international vascular society both have published several guidelines and consensus focusing on these diseases including the “Diagnosis and Treatment Standard about Common Venous Diseases 2022” by Vein Group of Vascular Surgery Committee from Chinese Medical Doctor Association, “2021 Clinical Practice Guidelines on the Management of Venous Thrombosis” and “2022 Clinical Practice Guidelines on the Management of Chronic Venous Disease of the Lower Limbs” by European Society of Vascular Surgery. Herein, we make a comparison and explanation of these guidelines and consensus to provide reference to the management of venous occlusive diseases.
Chronic venous diseases are the most common vascular diseases, which are the key field of vascular surgery. This review focused on the development about imaging diagnosis (including ultrasound, CT venogram, magnetic resonance venogram, venography and intravascular ultrasound), genetic scanning, drug therapy (including venous active drugs, antithrombotic drugs and sulodexide), compression therapy, surgical treatment (including heat venous ablation, non-heat venous ablation, endovascular treatment of iliac vein and repair of venous valves) of chronic venous diseases during the past years. This reflects the trend of preciseness, individualization and micro invasiveness in this field.
