    Abstract:
    The examination of 539 patients with varicose disease was fulfilled with the help of ultrasonic (dopplerography, angioscanning), rentgenological (phlebography, lymphography), functional (rheovasography, photoplethysmography) methods. Two forms of venous hypertension were established: superficial and deep. Hemodynamic disorders in patients with the superficial form result from the formation of isolated blood refluxes in the superficial, perforant and profound veins. In patients with this form the muscular-venous pump has mild disturbance and is clinically manifested as a slowly progressing course of the disease. The basis for the development of the deep form is a severe valve incompetence of the profound veins with the formation of associated blood refluxes in all the elements of the muscular-venous pump. The latter completely looses its function which leads to a rapid lympho-venous decompensation.
