[An unusual complication of ambulatory phlebectomy. Talc granuloma].

A review of the literature concerning the complications of ambulatory phlebectomy using the Muller technique. Description of a complication as yet unreported, silicotic granuloma, of which the author has seen 2 cases following the inappropriate use of antibiotic powder at the end of the operation. The prevention of this benign complication, as unnecessary as it is unesthetic, involves limiting the size of incisions and avoidance of the application of medicinal powder to a surgical wound.
