title: [Clinico-epidemiologic study of patients with phlebolymphatic diseases admitted to the hospitals of the Piedmont region 1976-1979. III. Analysis of varicose disease].
abstract: With the aid of the University and Piedmont Region Computer Centre all cases of varicose admitted to Piedmontese hospitals between 1976 and 1979 were examined. One admission every 1 hour 35 minutes is the regional average. In terms of age there is a numerical prevalence (8526 cases) of the under forty-fives, while in percentage terms, admissions appear to increase in proportion to age. Admissions in age groups to all the individual clinics were correlated with a view to the evaluation of any variations from the regional average, without incidentally confirming these figures. Detailed statistical analysis was employed to correlate the study.
