Rebel ulcers sometimes discharging small calcifications are likely to be kept going by a calcifying process. Examples of calcifying hypodermititis, of calcified phlebosclerosis and osteolytic metastasis are described.
1 526 scars were reviewed two years after surgery for varicose veins. 5.2 p. cent of cases had chronic pigmentation. Pigmented scars are found especially in the dorsal and anterolateral aspects of the thigh. These surgical complications are discussed.
Intraoperative findings in traumatology reveal that any damage to a vein is initially plugged by a mural thrombus. This thrombus ensures spontaneous haemostasis and is therefore part of a physiological process. An extension of this initial clot is no longer physiological process. An extension of this initial clot is no longer physiological however and results in pathological thrombosis by stagnation. On the basis of these findings, a very specialized anticoagulant drug is required immediately after the accident. The actual choice of anticoagulant is of secondary importance.
The author studied the acute outset of edema in 6 out of 327 cases of chronic lymphedema and insists on the diagnostic relevance of such manifestations in cases of acute swelling of the legs.

UNLABELLED: The venous confluence syndrome is the clinical consequence of the flows obstruction which are the main tributary of the deep venous system. The cava confluence syndrome is different from the aortic obstruction at the level of its bifurcation. Its causes are congenital abnormality, extrinsic, intrinsic and intramural compression. CLINICAL PICTURE: collaterization of the int. vertebral plexus of the Azigos and hemiozygos veins as well as episgastric and thoracic veins, in chronic cases. On the other hand, in acute cases, significant renal insufficiency, ascites and bilateral phlegmasia caerulea make up the clinical picture. In acute stage, surgery requires thrombectomy and endovascular prothesis whereas in chronic stage, surgery will tend to remove the cause with only a palliative action on external symptoms. In both cases, abnormalities bring about a surgical issue.
