[Delay of cicatrization of Linton type incisions].

The period of cicatrization of huge incisions of the leg, Lindon type, were verified in 181 surgeries. A quick cicatrization is obtained in 96% of surgeries whose aim is to resect varicose tissues massively or to ligate tibial perforating veins in sub- or supra-facial. On the other hand, post-hypodermectomy cicatrization for sclerosis of adipose tissue is much more tricky.

Moreover the SSV has not retained the clinician's attention due to ignorance or diagnostic negligence.

[Klippel-Trenaunay-type syndromes].

Seeing the diversity of the clinical look and of the subjacent malformations of the Klippel and Trenaunay Syndrome the following questions can be put forward: must the term KT be kept up? If not how to replace it? The mesoblastic sheet includes angioblastic, lymphoblastic and osteoblastic lineages. Each of them gives rise to malformations. All the malformations and all the signs and symptoms they generate may exist alone or mixed, the diversity of association is unlimited.
