Spider veins are the tiny pink and purple thread like veins that lie appear close to the surface of the skin. People who stand for long periods of time during the day for many years end up with spider veins on their legs and feet. Many of the spider veins with their unsightly short jagged patterns look like spiders and some are located in one general area while others are spread throughout both legs and feet. Spider veins are the earliest manifestations of venous diseases.
There are 3 major circulation systems in the human body, the Arteries bring blood from the Heart to the various vital Organs, Veins bring the blood from the Organs back to the Heart and in layman’s terms, the Lymphatics mope up all the excess fluids and return them back to the circulatory system.
A minimally invasive procedure, stenting is performed on blood vessels to restore or improve blood flow. A stent is a small, flexible mesh tube often made of metal (wire mesh). Other stents, known as covered stents or stent grafts are made of fabric material. Stent grafts are commonly used on larger blood vessels. When the stent device is deployed in the patient’s Aneurysm to seal it off and to prevent it from Rupturing, this process is called Endovascular Aneurysm Repair (EVAR).
