[Prevention of venous thromboses and cutaneous necroses using physical methods and pressure therapy in the surgery of chronic venous insufficiency of the lower limbs].
The surgical treatment of chronic venous insufficiency in the lower limbs, whether it is a case of so-called 'essential' varices or of post-phlebitic disorders, presents a certain number of risks of venous thrombosis and especially of cutaneous necrosis or of cicatricial detachment in operations of the Lindon or Felder type. Given a less significant set-back, it has been suggested that restorative surgery of the deep venous network, valve repair or insertion of a valvulated section, should be used in the treatment of post-phlebitic illness. Promising results have been obtained through specific kinesitherapy, involving a Leduc type manual lymph drainage together with pressotherapy, in the preparation of patients and in post-operative follow-up care.
