[Unilateral agenesis of the common femoral vein in a young boy with Klippel-Trénaunay syndrome (author's transl)].
A boy aged 4 years and 3 months with Klippel-Trénaunay syndrome showed a vein the thickness of a finger running suprapubicly. When he was standing it was filled tightly. Angiography showed agenesis of the right common femoral vein. Reflux from the right leg passed through this vein to the left common femoral vein. On the basis of the literature the place of these vascular dysplasias in the Klippel-Trénaunay syndrome is discussed. Diagnosis and treatment of such venous malformations are mentioned.
