title: [Iatrogenic vascular lesions].
abstract: We have observed during a period of 24 years, 277 vascular iatrogenic injuries. An analytic study has revealed the prominent following etiologies; Injections, perfusions, catheterisms and arteriographies: 121 cas; Orthopedic surgery: 69 cas; General surgery: 14 cas; Surgery and sclerosis of varicose veins: 71 cas. The author analyse the various aspects of these lesions, most of them are due to imperfect technique or professional error. A special attention is given to the 82 very serious cases, seen in emergency with more of 50% of bad results. Vascular risk is not frequent, but it exist in very numerous medico-surgical procedures. Early recognition and early correction of the vascular lesions reduce the incidence and the gravity of complications.
