title: [Mercury pressure gradient and peripheral vascular pathology. Apropos of several cases].
abstract: It would seem that application of the existing mercury core pressure gradient, when applied round a limb in the vertical position, is not limited only to the treatment of primary and secondary lymphoedema of the limbs. Certain reports allow us to conclude that, with different modes of use, the method could bring therapeutic relief to trophic disorders and rebel venous ulcers with or without an arterial condition, to certain genuinely arterial trophic disorders, and even to certain clinical levels of arteritis, this being whilst awaiting the result of investigation in the hospital milieu.
