What is the clippel-trenaunay-weber syndrome?
clippel-trenaunay-weber syndrome is a congenital condition that is diagnosed by the identification of three characteristics: maternal or dark red mark on the skin; Development of very soft skin in one or more limbs; and the presence of varicose veins. Hypertrophy or significant limb enlargement occurs in patients with syndrome. Klippel-Trenaunay-Webera was first recognized by Maurice Klippel and Paul Trenaunay in 1900. Seven years later, Dr. Frederick Pareber-Weber has discovered similar symptoms in some of his patients and the name of the clippel-trenaunay-weber syndrome was created to be created at equal, which is natural, that it is natural, that it is natural, that it is natural, that it is natural. Unlike other congenital syndromes, this is not selective for any sex or race, although there is an increased risk in women or increased heart rate. There is no cure for clippel-trenaunay-weber syndrome. Heart failure can forWhite if the condition leads to problems between arterial connection and vein. Such cases are known as the Parse-Weber Syndrome Syndrome Klipel-Trenaunay-Weber.
The mortality rate of the syndrome is about 1%, but the degree of morbidity or the occurrence of syndrome problems is very high. Problems experienced by patients clippel-trenaunay-weber are problems associated with blood flow and lymph flow. Because blood, lymph or combination of both cannot flow properly, it will be collected in the affected limb. Pressure that can cause great pain is formed. Swelling often occurs and infections and ulcers can set if swelling is not alleviated.
Although there is no cure for clippel-trenaunay-weber syndrome, some treatment methods are available. Because the severity of the syndrome varies from one patient supplied with the treatment is performed on the individual and the needy. For some patients, surgery is option and is markedAccept as debulking. Debulking is essentially removal of a tumor or ulcer. This is generally a temporary solution to problems caused by clippel-trenaunay-weber syndrome.
Other treatment options include amputation of the affected limb, although this is not a recommended procedure for most patients, because it seems that it does not help over time. Sclerotherapy is the one that works for some patients. These treatments include the use of chemical injections as opposed to surgery. Chemicals help create blood flow between arteries and veins.
Increasing the affected, swollen limbs can help alleviate part of the pain caused by blood collection and lymphatic fluids. Compression therapy is also useful. This includes the use of compression clothing on a swollen limb or limbs.
