The presence of a venous pumping mechanism in the foot may be signiï¬cant for venous return in the lower extremities. The anatomy and physiology of venous foot pump {VFP} is essential of effective interventions for prevention, treatment, and management of venous disease in the lower limbs. Though many studies have identified the risk factors for prevalence of venous disease, only few have investigated for risk factors for venous disease progression. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the relationship of flatfoot and varicose vein and the progression of venous disease. We did a pilot study on 12 patients with bilateral varicose vein with bilateral pes planus where we presume the cause of CVI is secondary to VFP dysfunction.
