In order to investigate the possibility of lymphatic disruption occurring during varicose vein surgery, lymphangiography performed by a modification of the Kinmonth technique was done in seven patients before and after standard surgical ablation of primary varicose veins. All seven patients demonstrated marked disruption of lymphatics. Extravasation of lymphangiogram contrast medium at the calf level and at the thigh level precluded demonstration of the groin lymphatics. It is concluded that lymphatic disruption attends varicose vein removal and such lymphatic damage contributes to postoperative leg edema.
为了研究在静脉曲张手术过程中发生淋巴管破坏的可能性，对7例患者在原发性静脉曲张标准手术切除前后采用改良的金蒙特技术进行淋巴管造影。所有7例患者均显示淋巴管有明显破坏。小腿和大腿水平淋巴管造影剂外渗，无法显示腹股沟淋巴管。结论是，静脉曲张切除伴有淋巴管破坏，这种淋巴管损伤导致术后腿部水肿。
