Notes

To include the great saphenous, the thrombosis should extend below the knee.
Obstruction due to excision, ligation, or trauma to deep venous segments counts in this score system.
Obstruction means that there is total occlusion at some point in the segment or >50% narrowing of at least half the segment.
The maximum obstruction score is 10.
Increasing scores imply more severe disease.
The venous segmental disease score for obstruction is a tool to help objectively follow patient response to clinical management.
