European Venous Forum (EVF)

The practice of phlebology has strong traditions in Europe and indeed the major advances in the field have originated in Europe. The many phlebological societies, meetings and congresses in Europe and the large number of delegates indicate the high interest in the field. Despite this, there are controversial issues and many areas still lack the scientific evidence that is demanded from today’s requirement of evidence based medicine.

The EVF is under the auspices of the Union Internationale de Phlebology and the International Union of Angiology and every European society should be represented. Membership is wide and open to anyone who has an interest in the field irrespective of medicine discipline.
