title: The use of the pedal venous pressure (P.V.P.) as a guide in evaluating the patency of venous repairs.
abstract: Obstruction of the deep veins by thrombi causes the P.V.P. to become elevated. Monitoring this pressure can serve as an invaluable guide in evaluating the patency or obstruction of venous repairs.
