title: [Personal experience in the diagnosis and treatment of post-phlebitis syndrome].
abstract: The author proposes a new classification of the post-phlebitic syndrome which he has used for several years. The term chronic thrombosis is used together with the name of the thrombosed vein. Note is made of the degree of chronic venous insufficiency, the causal disease and the date of onset. Treatment is above all medical (compression, physiotherapy, mineral spring therapy, rehabilitation and instruction of patients). Radical surgical treatment is indicated when phlebography shows a recanalization of the deep veins.
