[Clinico-experimental evaluation of the new reconstructive operations on the popliteal and crural veins in postphlebitic syndrome during recanalization].

: The experimental data on studying surgical anatomy of the popliteal vein and its branches are presented. On the basis of the findings obtained, the experimental models of reconstructive operations--transposition of the small saphenous and muscular veins with the functioning valves to the position of a popliteal vein, its bifurcation or one of the sural veins--have been developed. The clinical assessment of the performed reconstructive operations on the veins of the popliteal -sural segment was carried out. The results of reconstructive operations are good. A conclusion about the expediency to use in the clinic of the developed methods of operative interventions on the major veins of the lower extremities was drawn.
