What is Venous Insufficiency (Varicose Veins)? Venous insufficiency is a medical condition in which veins in the body (most often in the legs) are not able to pump blood back to the heart. This causes blood to pool in the blood vessels so that they become enlarged (varicose) or dilated over time.

Peripheral venous disease is the blockage of a vein by a blood clot. It can happen anywhere in the body but is most common in the arms and legs. It is caused by injury, infection, a long bed rest or illness, recent major surgery, pregnancy, or being overweight.

CVI may affect up to 20% of adults. CVI can be caused by damaged valves in the veins or vein blockage. Both may be a result of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or blood clots in the deep veins of the legs. If a clot forms in the superficial veins, there is a very low risk of DVT occurring.
The most common cause of chronic venous insufficiency is a current or past blood clot (called deep vein thrombosis, DVT). A lump in the deep veins can cause significant harm to the leg veins. Even if you are unaware of the damage, you may see symptoms of CVI develop.
To diagnose chronic venous insufficiency, your NYU Langone doctor asks about your health history to determine the extent of your symptoms. He or she also performs a physical exam to look for swelling, skin changes, varicose veins, or ulcers on the leg. Your doctor may also recommend certain diagnostic imaging tests.
The ICD code I872 is used to code Chronic venous insufficiency. Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) is a medical condition in which the veins cannot pump enough blood back to the heart. The most common cause of CVI is superficial venous reflux which is a treatable condition.
If the impaired vein function causes significant symptoms, such as swelling and ulcer formation, it is referred to as chronic venous disease.
CVI includes varicose veins and superficial venous reflux ("hidden varicose veins") It is sometimes called chronic peripheral venous insufficiency and should not be confused with post-thrombotic syndrome in which the deep veins have been damaged by previous deep vein thrombosis. Specialty:
