DISCLOSURE POLICY
In accordance with the ACCME Accreditation Criteria, the American College of Surgeons must ensure that anyone in a position to control the content of the educational activity has disclosed all relevant financial relationships with any commercial interest. Therefore, it Read moreis mandatory that both the program planning committee and speakers complete disclosure forms. Members of the program committee were required to disclose all financial relationships and speakers were required to disclose any financial relationship as it pertains to the content of the presentations. The ACCME defines a ‘commercial interest’ as “any entity producing, marketing, re-selling, or distributing health care goods or services consumed by, or used on, patients”. It does not consider providers of clinical service directly to patients to be commercial interests. The ACCME considers “relevant” financial relationships as financial transactions (in any amount) that may create a conflict of interest and occur within the 12 months preceding the time that the individual is being asked to assume a role controlling content of the educational activity.
The ACCME also requires that ACS manage any reported conflict and eliminate the potential for bias during the session.

A 23-year-old woman with a history of DVT presents with complaints of venous claudication. Duplex ultrasonography and magnetic resonance venography both show a post-thrombotic left common iliac vein. Pressures in the dorsal foot vein and common femoral vein of both limbs are measured. What statement below is true?
- A.
In the supine position, both pressures in the left limb are circa 25% higher than in the right limb.
- B.
In erect position, pressure in the dorsal foot veins is higher than the contralateral limb.
- C.
Dorsal foot vein pressure of the left limb is a good parameter in identifying iliofemoral deep venous obstruction in this patient.
- D.
During walking, pressure in the common femoral vein of the left limb increases considerably.
Correct Answer
D. During walking, pressure in the common femoral vein of the left limb increases considerably.Explanation

- A.
Angiogram
- B.

Patient with CEAP C4 and IVUS Iliac vein obstruction > 50%. What would be the best treatment option?
- A.
A. Coumadin
- B.
B. Venoactive drug
- C.
C. Compression therapy
- D.
D. Iliac vein stenting
Correct Answer
D. D. Iliac vein stentingExplanation
For a patient with CEAP C4 and IVUS Iliac vein obstruction > 50%, the best treatment option would be iliac vein stenting. This is because iliac vein stenting is an effective intervention for treating iliac vein obstruction, which is causing symptoms such as pain, swelling, and skin changes in the patient's lower extremities. Coumadin, a blood thinner, may be used as part of the treatment, but it alone would not address the underlying obstruction. Venoactive drugs and compression therapy may be helpful in managing symptoms, but they would not treat the underlying cause of the obstruction.Rate this question:

A patient presents with cosmetic complaints of varicose veins in both groin and down the GSV tract. In your physical examination you find a varicose vein crossing the pubic region from one SFJ to the other. What is the appropriate course of action?
- A.
A. Sclero-compression treatment
- B.
B. Endovenous thermal ablation
- C.
C. Crossectomy and stripping
- D.
D. Imaging of the iliocaval tract
Correct Answer
D. D. Imaging of the iliocaval tractExplanation
The appropriate course of action in this case is to perform imaging of the iliocaval tract. The patient's presentation of varicose veins in both the groin and down the GSV tract, along with the finding of a varicose vein crossing the pubic region from one SFJ to the other, suggests the possibility of underlying venous insufficiency in the iliocaval tract. Imaging of the iliocaval tract, such as a duplex ultrasound or venography, can help to assess the extent and severity of the venous insufficiency and guide further treatment decisions. Sclero-compression treatment, endovenous thermal ablation, and crossectomy and stripping may be considered as treatment options depending on the findings from the imaging.Rate this question:
