RESUMO
Thirty-two patients with post-phlebitic syndrome were evaluated clinically and by venography for the foot. The results showed a correlation between the degree of oedema, foot symptoms and the venographic findings. The venograms of the foot in severe cases showed dilatation and tortuosity of the superficial dorsal and communicating veins with loss of their valvular pattern. Thrombosis of the deep plantar veins were detected in 60% of these severe cases
