Plethysmographic examinations on 47 females with slight primary varicosis to primary varicosis of medium degree resulted in excessive values of the swelling inclination and the change of the venous capacity V30 compared with the normal values reported in literature, whereas the venous regurgitation was in the superior normal region. By sclerosation treatment no significant change of the pathological venous measuring values could be achieved. In a good cosmetic success and directed influence of the locally disturbed haemodynamics could, therefore, not be spoken about the restoration character of the sclerosation treatment for the disturbed venous haemodynamics.
