Authors analyze, retrospectively, the principal predisposing factors to varicose illness: age, sex, pregnancy, oral contraceptives, and labour activity, in 589 patients. They consider the correlation between subjective symptomatology and the time of varicose appearance, in order to individualize a pre-clinical status.
