The prevalence is estimated to be between 7% and 35% in infants.

Introduction: Venous ulcers are usually treated with compression therapy, but, because this treatment may not be effective for some people, adjuvant therapy could be beneficial. We did a systematic review of randomised controlled trials that compared pentoxifylline (with and without compression treatment) with placebo, or other treatments, in patients with venous leg ulcers.
Methods: We identified eight trials (547 adults), five of which compared pentoxifylline and compression with placebo and compression (n=445), and three of which compared pentoxifylline alone with placebo (102).
