  • Title: [Surgical correction of the venous blood flow in congenital hypoplasia of the deep venous system of the lower extremity].
    Author: Moskalenko IuD, Fakhratov M.
    Journal: Kardiologiia; 1980 Feb; 20(2):71-4. PubMed ID: 7359820.
    Abstract:
    Problems concerning the surgical treatment of patients with congenital hypoplasia of the deep veins of the lower limb are analyzed. Among 218 patients with angiodysplasia of the lower limbs 108 were found to have a venous form of the lesion, in 90 of whom hypoplasia of the deep venous system was diagnosed from clinico-angiographic findings. Corrective operations developed by the authors (excision of the venous conglomerate or hemangiomas together with the changed subcutaneous fat of the dorsal surface of the foot in combination with replantation of a perforated skin graft and extensive operation of the Linton type) made it possible to achieve regression of the symptoms of severe chronic venous insufficiency of the lower limb in 85% of cases.
