Diagnosis and Treatment of Venous Malformations Consensus Document of the International Union of Phlebology (IUP): updated 2013.

In Boston at the World Congress of the IUP the over 2000 delegates reached a Consensus on the actual evidence of CCSVI. The article published yesterday on CCSVI reports at pages 27 and 28 that CCSVI can be caused by congenital truncular venous malformations. In addition, CCSVI may provoke reduced brain perfusion and reduced CSF flow. Both mechanisms may play a role in neurodegeneration. 

Diagnosis and Treatment of Venous Malformations Consensus Document of the International Union of Phlebology (IUP): updated 2013. Int Angiol. 2014 Feb 25. [Epub ahead of print]
Abstract
Venous malformations (VMs) are the most common vascular developmental anomalies (birth defects) . These defects are caused by developmental arrest of the venous system during various stages of embryogenesis. VMs remain a difficult diagnostic and therapeutic challenge due to the wide range of clinical presentations, unpredictable clinical course, erratic response to the treatment with high recurrence/persistence rates, high morbidity following non-specific conventional treatment, and confusing terminology. The Consensus Panel reviewed the recent scientific literature up to the year 2013 to update a previous IUP Consensus (2009) on the same subject. ISSVA Classification with special merits for the differentiation between the congenital vascular malformation (CVM) and vascular tumors was reinforced with an additional review on syndrome-based classification. A "modified" Hamburg classification was adopted to emphasize the importance of extratruncular vs. truncular sub-types of VMs. This incorporated the embryological origin, morphological differences, unique characteristics, prognosis and recurrence rates of VMs based on this embryological classification. The definition and classification of VMs were strengthened with the addition of angiographic data that determines the hemodynamic characteristics, the anatomical pattern of draining veins and hence the risk of complication following sclerotherapy. The hemolymphatic malformations, a combined condition incorporating LMs and other CVMs, were illustrated as a separate topic to differentiate from isolated VMs and to rectify the existing confusion with name-based eponyms such as Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome. Contemporary concepts on VMs were updated with new data including genetic findings linked to the etiology of CVMs and chronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency. Besides, newly established information on coagulopathy including the role of D-Dimer was thoroughly reviewed to provide guidelines on investigations and anticoagulation therapy in the management of VMs. Congenital vascular bone syndrome resulting in angio-osteo-hyper/hypotrophy and (lateral) marginal vein was separately reviewed. Background data on arterio-venous malformations was included to differentiate this anomaly from syndrome-based VMs. For the treatment, a new section on laser therapy and also a practical guideline for follow up assessment were added to strengthen the management principle of the multidisciplinary approach. All other therapeutic modalities were thoroughly updated to accommodate a changing concept through the years.

Nuova Consensus sulle malformazioni venose.
Si è raggiunto un Consenso sulla CCSVI lo scorso settembre a Boston al Congresso Mondiale sulle malattie venose. Nelle pagine 27 e 28 del documento pubblicato ieri si attesta che la CCSVI può essere inquadrata come una entità patologica prodotta da malformazioni congenite dell'apparato venoso di tipo tronculare. Si afferma inoltre che essa si associa a disordini neurodegenerativi come la SM e può essere anche presente in persone sane. Vengono indicate anche come sue conseguenze cerebrali il peggioramento della perfusione e del flusso liquorale.
