title: Exertional (march) haemoglobinuria.
abstract: The case history is presented of two patients with attacks of cherry-red urine after strenuous exercise. Both had varicosity of the long saphenous veins. Haemoglobinuria disappeared after crossectomy of the long saphenous vein and resection of the convolutes. After one and two years, they have no recurrence.
