[Efficacy of O-(beta-hydroxyethyl)-rutosides in the treatment of venous leg ulcers].

In a prospective 6 weeks study, done in 3 phlebology practices on 107 patients presenting an acute leg ulcer, we compared the efficacy of a combination of compression and HR (O-(Beta-hydroxyethyl)-rutosides with compression alone, based on objective and subjective parameters. These objective and subjective parameters are improved in both groups. A statistically significant superiority of the therapeutic combination is demonstrated in the cure of ulcers.
