Venous stasis ulcers, also known as venous leg ulcers, are open, poorly-healing or non-healing wounds associated with vein disease. Stasis ulcers represent an advanced form of stasis dermatitis with skin breakdown due to a very minor injury.
Treatment for venous reflux may help with more rapid healing and reduces the risk of recurrent stasis ulcer development. See the treatments for venous stasis dermatitis.
