title: [Veno-lymphatic angiodysplasia as the cause of recurrent inguinal varicose veins].
abstract: Veno-lymphatic angiodysplasia may be the reason for the development of varicose leg veins. This form of angiodysplasia is illustrated by two case reports. Until now, angiodysplasia as possible cause of recurrent varicose veins after surgical treatment has not been included in the classification of the morphological types of recurrent varicose veins. The surgical approach exposing the common femoral vein in a first step and secondly performing a complete resection of the malformation with careful consideration of the adjacent femoral vessels is recommended as the treatment of choice.
