    Abstract

    The degree of venous disease was independently determined using a number of common vein assessment methods. The aim of this study to correlate the Venous Clinical Severity Score components and correlation with superficial vein in subject of varicose vein. Methods: A total of 207 consecutive subject with primary symptomatic who was attened in OPD for varicose vein on 200 legs. It was included in this study. Age, sex, anthropometry, and duplex Doppler USG were performed in the standing position. The diameter of the great saphenous vein, anterior and posterior accessory great saphenous veins, perforator vein, great saphenous vein, anatomic course of the great saphenous vein, and Short Saphenous Vein were documented. Results: Mean age (years), HIP (cm), WAIST (cm), and BMI (kg/m2) were 35.21±9.47, 114.05±100.51, 101.56±11.89, 29.35±4.96 in the mild Venous Clinical Severity Score(VCSS) group and 36.04±10.32, 192.01±908.60, 102.08±10.31, and 29.39±8.42 in the moderate Venous Clinical Severity Score group. The change in Great Saphenous Vein diameter at the level of lower calf was significantly positive, and Short Saphenous Vein (SSV) diameter at midcalf was significantly negatively correlated with Venous Clinical Severity Score severity. In contrast, the change in diameter just below the Sapheno-Femoral Junction, Great Saphenous Vein diameter at the thigh, diameter at the mid-thigh, Great Saphenous Vein diameter above the knee, Great Saphenous Vein diameter below the knee, Great Saphenous Vein diameter at the medial malleolus, Short Saphenous Vein diameter at thelateral malleolus, and Short Saphenous Vein (SSV) diameter just below the knee were not significantly correlated with the severity of Venous Clinical Severity Score. Conclusion The GSV diameter at the level of lower calf was significantly positive, and SSV diameter at midcalf was significantly negatively correlated with venous clinical severity score VCS Score severity.
