  • Title: [Dynamic popliteal phlebography].
    Author: Perrin M, Bolot JE, Genevois A, Hiltband B.
    Journal: Phlebologie; 1988; 41(2):429-40. PubMed ID: 3406102.
    Abstract:
    Since 1984, dynamic popliteal phlebography is an investigative fundamental technique in chronic venous insufficiency of the lower extremities. Our experience includes more than 2,500 examinations. After an anatomical reminder, the technique and methodology of this examination are described. Then its indications are specified: a) in essential varicose veins when a surgical procedure is contemplated in the popliteal fossa: insufficient external saphenous vein, insufficient gemellar veins, etc... b) before repeated surgery for essential varicose veins, c) in the pre-operative evaluation of some post-phlebitic syndromes. Finally, the informations provided by this examination are compared with those provided by clinical examination, Doppler and ultrasonography.
