Filter by:Compression therapy is basic treatment for chronic venous disease (CVD) of the lower limbs. Numerous studies have demonstrated the efficacy and safety of compression therapy in relieving symptoms such as pain, venous edema, leg heaviness and fatigue, as well as accelerating the healing of venous ulcers. It has been established that сompression therapy is indicated for patients with both minimally expressed manifestations of CVD and severe forms of the disease. At the same only one study has been conducted to assess the correction of venous outflow from the lower limbs and pelvis in patients with pelvic varicose vein (PVV) and pelvic congestion syndrome (PCS). However, the incidence of this pathology ranges from 15 to 30% in the female population. The cost to the healthcare system of treating these patients in the United States exceeds $2 billion. To date, the options and indications for compression therapy in patients with concomitant PVV and CVD have not been defined. The rational use of compression in this cohort of patients may contribute to the improvement of effective conservative treatment. In addition, inappropriate prescription of compression to patients with pelvic venous disease (which can be observed in real clinical practice) may discredit this simple, effective and safe therapeutic method. In addition, the research devoted to the problem of compression treatment of PVV will contribute to the development of new special compression products aimed at accelerating venous outflow from the pelvic organs. It can be assumed that this will serve as a stimulus for obtaining new data on the therapeutic effects of compression and create conditions for the creation of new technological directions in the production of compression knitwear.
Pelvic congestion syndrome is a debilitating and potentially life threatening disorder of the pelvic region there is a constant hindrance in patient's daily professional and personal life due to the chronic pain. it can provide a definite way to improve pelvic congestion and quality of life. In this way it can benefit a large percentage of community females suffering from pelvic congestion syndrome and disability. This can grow at large length in favour of patients, clinicians and overall women health.
Pelvic vein embolization (PVE) is the current treatment procedure used to treat women with Pelvic Congestion Syndrome (PCS). This treatment is not widely available, and many women when diagnosed with PCS cannot afford treatment. The purpose of this study is to assess whether compression therapy is an effective alternative treatment to PVE for women who are unwilling or unable to undergo treatment by PVE. Compression therapy would provide a cost-effective alternative to coil embolization.
The primary objective is to quantify the degree of pain relief in patients undergoing gonadal vein embolization with coils as well as identify clinical or imaging factors that are predictive of a positive response to treatment, or poor response to treatment.
The pelvic congestion syndrome (PCS) is a complex and multifactorial condition associated with inflammatory and hormonal etiophatogenesis similar to the endometriosis. Furthermore, both pathologies share same clinical symptoms as chronic pelvic pain and dyspareunia. Our hypothesis is that PCS prevalence is higher in patients with endometriosis than in those without clinical or ultrasound signs of endometriosis.
