[Disorders and correction of lymph outflow in chronic venous insufficiency of the lower limbs].

An analysis of 176 lymphograms, made in 102 patients with venous pathology of the lower extremities, is presented. In 14 of them varicosity in a decompensation stage, an uncomplicated form, in 32--varicosity in a decompensation stage, a complicated form, in 20--postthrombotic disease of an edematous and algesic form, in 36--an edematous-ulcerous form. The duration of the disease was from 3 to 25 years. It was found that the depth of changes in the lymphatic system was dependent on the rate of decompensation in the venous one.
