Brief Summary
Chronic venous disease (CVD) is widespread in adult subjects of western countries and is responsible of important morbidity and healthcare costs. CVD has never been extensively studied in pediatric population where the early pathophysiological alterations may occur undetected. The aim of this study is to assess the prevalence of CVD searching also for the early clinical and instrumental signs of this disease.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Prevalence of Chronic Venous Disease
The Prevalence of Chronic Venous Disease in the population study will be assessed.
at 9 month
Echo duplex evaluation
The correlation between veins diameter and the presence of reflux will be evaluated in pediatric population
at 10 month
Study Arms (1)
Pediatric patients
Recruited pediatric patients will undergo an in-office vascular visit and an echo duplex scan of lower limbs, in order to detect any symptoms or signs related to chronic venous disease.
Interventions
The patient will be examined to search for signs or symptoms of chronic venous disease (teleangiectasia, reticular veins, varicose veins, skin changes, pain, itching, heavy legs, ankle edema)
The venous system of lower limbs will be checked in order to detect any vein dilation and reflux.
Eligibility Criteria
Pediatric subjects, of both sex, aged between 9 and 18 years old which are cooperative for visit and diagnostic testing.
You may qualify if:
- Pediatric Patients
You may not qualify if:
- Patients with mental retardation
- Patients with Marfan syndrome
- Patients with an inability to stand or collaborate for the clinical tests.
