Lower Limb Varicose Veins and the Pelvic Connection: in-person clinical refinement course
In-person course · Vitória, ES, Brazil
Not every varicose vein recurrence is a technical failure. Some are a diagnostic failure.
If the pelvis was not part of your reasoning, your treatment may be incomplete.
Two-day in-person immersion · 16 hours · small class

In clinical practice, you have seen this happen
The case that does not fail in execution
- Varicose veins treated correctly
- Technique well performed
- Satisfactory early outcome
And yet the patient comes back. No evident technical error, no clear explanation in the saphenous axis.
There is a group of patients in whom
- The varicose veins do not follow the classic saphenous pattern
- They appear in atypical areas: gluteal, posterior, lateral
- Early recurrence appears
- The clinical picture defies the logic of conventional treatment
Most of the time, they have one thing in common: the pelvic source was not considered.
The pelvis is not a detail
It is often an active part of the pathophysiology. And when that is left out of the reasoning, the diagnosis is incomplete, treatment planning loses precision and the result does not hold.
It is not about doing more. It is about seeing better.
About the course
Lower Limb Varicose Veins, Pelvic Connection is an in-person immersion for vascular physicians who already treat lower limb varicose veins and want to deepen their clinical reasoning.
Two days integrating theory and practice, in Vitória, with a direct focus on abdominopelvic connections, varicose vein patterns outside the saphenous territory, clinical and ultrasound correlation, and the impact of these connections on treatment decisions.
What you will develop
You do not leave with more protocol. You leave with sharper clinical judgment.
- Recognize varicose vein patterns with a possible pelvic source
- Identify the non-saphenous venous territories involved
- Correlate clinical findings with reflux pathways
- Refine your treatment decision-making
- Reduce recurrences related to an uninvestigated source
