摘要

The discovery that the true venous reservoir is located deep within the plantar muscles rather than superficially has significant implications for the treatment and management of venous insufficiency and static foot disorders. It highlights the need for a more comprehensive approach to studying and treating venous pathology, considering the complex interplay of various anatomical and physiological factors. Evaluating foot type and hypermobility is a crucial aspect of the physical examination for vascular disease. Pes cavus and excessive ankle joint dorsiflexion are correlated with superficial venous insufficiency. Orthotics have shown promise in alleviating symptoms and should be integrated into the treatment regimen, tailored to the patient’s arch type.
