Our hospital was established in 2006 in Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo as a specialized hospital for vascular diseases such as lower limb varicose veins. We offer “prevention,” “examination,” and “treatment.” In addition, we are able to provide “advanced treatment” in collaboration with university hospitals and affiliated hospitals, “standard treatment under insurance coverage (insured group treatment),” and “second opinions.” Please contact us first by phone or email.

Diagnosis is most important. The patient is the main character. Correct diagnosis is the most important thing in order to correctly understand a disease. Therefore, first of all, we listen in detail to the patient’s symptoms, lifestyle, and stories. Then, we perform a detailed diagnosis with ultrasound (echo) exams of the abdomen and legs, as well as blood and urine tests. We then select the most appropriate treatment method together, including the patient’s wishes, based on a comprehensive analysis of all of these factors. Our hospital provides medical advice on the best treatment method based on the patient’s condition, but the patient always makes the final decision on the treatment method. We also have a patient support room staffed by professionals who provide individualized support.

The leg veins are blood vessels that carry blood from the legs back to the heart. They play a crucial role in the circulatory system and are responsible for returning blood to the heart for re-oxygenation.

There are two main types of leg veins: superficial veins and deep veins. Superficial veins are located just below the surface of the skin and can be easily seen, while deep veins are located deeper within the leg and are not visible from the surface.

Varicose veins are a common problem that can affect the legs. They occur when the veins become enlarged, swollen, and twisted, and can cause a range of symptoms including pain, swelling, and aching in the legs. In some cases, varicose veins can also lead to more serious complications such as blood clots.

If you are concerned about your leg veins, it is important to seek the advice of a doctor or specialist. They can perform a number of tests to determine the cause of your symptoms and recommend the most appropriate treatment. In some cases, this may involve lifestyle changes, such as exercise and weight management, while in other cases, it may involve more invasive treatments such as surgery or vein ablation.

So far, our clinic has provided treatment for varicose veins and instructed the use of compression stockings to many patients through our lower limb edema outpatient department. However, despite the fact that surgery alone may not be enough to cure it, there has been an increase in patients who are left untreated. This has become even more difficult during the COVID-19 pandemic, as it is hard for people to go to medical facilities and they often come to us after their condition has worsened.

That is why our clinic has established a new “Lower Limb Edema-related Diseases Outpatient Department” that goes beyond just treating edema.

Have you undergone surgery for varicose veins but still experience edema, with no effective solution provided by medical facilities despite seeking their advice?

Or have you been prescribed compression stockings despite no abnormalities being found through a lower limb vein echo, and despite your best efforts, your legs still hurt in the evening and you end up taking them off?

This is no longer just a problem with varicose veins, there may be possibilities of health issues related to lifestyle or internal organs. Therefore, without accurate diagnosis and treatment, it will not heal.

Are there those among you who have net-like veins appearing on the skin but are unable to receive any treatment as no abnormalities were found through a lower limb vein echo?

This is not varicose veins but rather telangiectasia. This can also be due to pigmentation deposition caused by inflammation of the tiny blood vessels responsible for microcirculation in the skin, which can occur as a symptom of skin vasculitis, one of the conditions that can occur with exposure to heat sources such as stoves and fireplaces, or in the case of autoimmune diseases or allergies. In this case, treatment for ordinary pigmentation deposition or for varicose veins will not heal the condition.

What is cellulitis?

Cellulitis is a bacterial skin infection that affects the skin and the subcutaneous tissue immediately beneath it. It is also called “hives”.

Symptoms include redness, swelling, heat, and pain in the affected skin area, which can rapidly spread. In some cases, there may also be symptoms such as fever, chills, and fatigue. Cellulitis is common in the shins or toes, but it can also occur in other parts of the body. Usually, it does not occur in multiple areas simultaneously.

The skin consists of the epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous tissue.

By doing a skin biopsy, you can determine whether the lesion is occurring in the vessels of the dermis, at the boundary between the lower layer of adipose tissue, whether it is occurring in veins or arteries.

Team medicine As described above, skin lesions can be caused by more than just congestion, and a wide perspective is needed when making a diagnosis. Our clinic approaches your symptoms by using knowledge that spans across three fields: vascular surgery, plastic surgery, and dermatology, and our “team of specialist doctors for the feet” will work together to diagnose and treat your condition.

We also refer patients to the “Foot Disease Center” at Juntendo University (located in Tokyo’s Bunkyo ward) as needed.
