- Abstract
Supported by statistical data, the author of this article studies the frequency of phlebological disorders in 1977, and then looks at 1974 in comparison. He draws up the links between phlebopathies and the patients' professions, and studies the geographical distribution of these phlebopathies. Next he questions the current phenomenon of increasing numbers of phlebopathies and the problems which may be raised by hospitalization. After his analysis of these various data he considers the economic aspects of phlebopathy and widens future perspectives within a really sanitary phlebological programme.
