Adjustment of the Flow of Tissue Fluid in the Presence of Localized, Sustained High Venous Pressure as Found With Varices of the Great Saphenous System During Walking

Varices of the saphenous systems of veins are a consequence of the inadequate valves present and the resulting imperfect circulation.Altered venous pressure relationships as one phase of this impaired circulation have heretofore received lit- tle attention.The extremiiely abntormal pressure
