CCSVI is the acronym for Chronic Cerebrospinal Venous Insufficiency, initially described by P.Zamboni, as being strongly associated with multiple sclerosis (MS). It is a syndrome characterized by stenosis of the internal jugular veins (IJVs) and/or azygous vein (AZ) with opening of collaterals and insufficient drainage.
