[Peripheral lymphatico-venous anastomosis. New surgical technic].
A new surgical technique for peripheral lymphatic-venous anastomosis is presented. It is designed especially for cases of node block, e.g. lymphoedema after mastectomy. The distal ends of the collectors are sectioned downstream from the block and passed through a patch, which also serves to close a phlebotomy on an adjacent vein. An experimental study and preliminary clinical results are discussed.
