Resumo: OBJECTIVE: This study has been designed to correlate the diameter of the greater saphenous vein in different levels of the lower limbs with the body mass index of each individual to determine a possible relation between them. METHODS: Fifty-two lower limbs in 26 volunteers (six males and 20 females) without a chronic venous disease record, aged 21-68 were evaluated. Prior to color-flow duplex scanning the body mass index was defined. The deep and superficial venous systems and perforator veins were assessed as described in the literature. The diameter of the greater saphenous vein was measured with ultrasound longitudinal imaging in seven different levels. For the statistical analysis, Student t test for paired data and Spearman test were used. RESULTS: The difference observed in saphenous venous in the second and third levels when compared to the lower right and left limbs was not considered significant and a single group was formed to correlate with body mass index. The correlation was considered statistically irrelevant. CONCLUSION: By correlating the diameters of the greater saphenous vein with the body mass index of each individual it was noted that the relation between them is not significant, therefore it can be assumed that tall thin individuals can have greater saphenous vein with similar diameter as short fat individuals.

MÉTODOS: Cinqüenta e dois membros inferiores de 26 voluntários (seis homens e 20 mulheres) sem registro de doença venosa crônica, com idades entre 21 e 68 anos, foram avaliados. O índice de massa corporal foi definido antes do eco-Doppler colorido. Os sistemas venosos superficial e profundo e as veias perfurantes foram avaliados de acordo com a literatura. O diâmetro da veia safena magna foi medido através de imagem ultra-sonográfica longitudinal em sete níveis diferentes. Para a análise estatística, foram utilizados o teste t de Student para dados pareados e o teste de Spearman. RESULTADOS: A diferença observada na veia safena no segundo e terceiro níveis, quando comparada aos membros inferiores direito e esquerdo, não foi considerada significativa, e somente um grupo foi formado para a comparação com o índice de massa corporal. A correlação foi considerada estatisticamente irrelevante. CONCLUSÃO: Através da comparação dos diâmetros da veia safena magna com o índice de massa corporal dos sujeitos, percebeu-se que a relação entre esses dois fatores não é significativa e, portanto, pode-se concluir que indivíduos altos e magros podem ter veias safenas magnas com diâmetros similares aos de indivíduos baixos e gordos.Universidade Estadual de Maringá School of MedicineUniversidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP) Department of Vascular SurgeryUniversidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP) Department of BiostatisticsUniversidade Santo AmaroUNIFESP, Department of Vascular SurgeryUNIFESP, Department of BiostatisticsSciELOSociedade Brasileira de Angiologia e de Cirurgia Vascular (SBACV)Universidade Estadual de Maringá School of MedicineUniversidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)Universidade Santo AmaroSeidel, Amélia C.Miranda Junior, Fausto [UNIFESP]Juliano, Yara [UNIFESP]Novo, Neil Ferreira [UNIFESP]2015-06-14T13:31:44Z2015-06-14T13:31:44Z2005-09-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion265-269application/pdfhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S1677-54492005000300008Jornal Vascular Brasileiro.
