English Dictionary: Varices by the DICT Development Group
1 result for Varices
From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]:
   d8Varix \[d8]Va"rix\, n.; pl. {Varices}. [L.]
      1. (Med.) A uneven, permanent dilatation of a vein.
  
      Note: Varices are owing to local retardation of the venous
               circulation, and in some cases to relaxation of the
               parietes of the veins. They are very common in the
               superficial veins of the lower limbs. --Dunglison.
