ABSTRACT
The experience with the clinical use for many years of the quantitative plethysmographic indices for solving the diagnostical and tactical problems in varicose disease has shown their advantage over the clinical and roentgenophlebographical signs in detecting the presence and degree of retrograde blood flow in the perforating veins of a crus, making clear distinction between the stages of compensation and decompensation with subdivision of the latter into the subgroups according to the pronouncement of perforans shunting, choice of a method for operation.

An examination and operative treatment of 207 patients have shown that findings of plethysmometry and plethysmography reflecting the state of the direct and retrograde blood flow in the veins of lower extremities help to the correct selection of the method of surgery without phlebography. Long-term results of the operation confirm this conclusion.

Grounds are given for the etiological importance of the professional labour of textile workers related with rapid and prolonged walking in the development of varicosity of the lower extremities. In workers of shoe-industry standing at the conveyer and doing the work not hard for upper extremities, the incidence of venous varicosity is thrice as low.
