There are underlined genetic defects in the genesis of the disease, the role of pro-inflammatory and immunoregulatory imbalance of cytokines, growth factors, cell adhesion molecules, matrix metalloproteinases etс. in pathogenic constructions of venous damage. This congenital vascular pathology is not as rare as it is commonly thought, and the patients suffering from this pathology since childhood are often being unsuccessfully treated in adulthood for varicose veins, elephantiasis and recurrent phlebothrombosis, when diagnosis of Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome have never previously established.
