title: [On the relationship between the return blood circulation and sports].
abstract: The authors discuss the consequences of various kinds of sport such as canoeing, the numerous forms of jumping, football and cycling on the venous system and go on to consider the treatment of varicose veins and to recommend fairly broad indications for surgery based on stripping along the length of the internal saphenous vein, completed if necessary, by phlebosclerosis. The importance of keeping the leg in a sterile state during the post operative period is emphasised. Some easy precautions to be carried out while practicing various sports are described.
