Abstract

Venous disorders causing a permanent increase in venous pressure are by far the most frequent reason for ulcers of lower extremity. Venous ulceration is the most severe and debilitating outcome of chronic venous insufficiency in the lower limbs and accounts for 80 percent of lower extremity ulcerations. The recurrence of venous ulcers is a common thing due to the recurrence of varicosities and non-compliance of the patient to the treatment. Various other causes for lower extremity ulcerations could be arterial insufficiency, prolonged pressure, diabetic neuropathy and systemic illness such as rheumatoid arthritis, vasculitis, osteomyelitis, and skin malignancy. A thorough investigation of underlying venous disorder is a prerequisite for a differentiated therapy. Venous ulcer causes a significant burden for the health care system. This article highlights the role of SWCR guidelines in management of venous ulcer.
