ResumoOne hundred consecutive legs in 74 patients presenting with recurrent varicose veins were investigated by varicography. Forty recurrences occurred at the groin, 80 in the thigh and 97 in the calf. Within each group different anatomical variations were encountered, and we describe the frequency of these and of certain commonly observed combinations. We also suggest possible causes, and discuss how the results of varicography may assist in surgical management.
