Conclusions Canine model of CVI provides both scientific understanding of venous disease as well as translational model for assessment of potential therapies Growth and remodeling of veins under reflux/HTN show increased vein stiffness, wall thickness, and collagen-to-elastin ratio A potential prosthetic venous valve shows early (4 wks) pre- clinical promise but requires longer implant durations prior to FIM. 3
