Abstract
THE treatment of varicose veins by the injection method started in Europe, being used in 1904 by Tavel and in 1912 by Linser. During and after World War I numerous sclerosing agents were employed by Sicard and Gaugier, Montpellier, Genevrier and Dowthwaite, Noul and Troisier. Melkon1 reviewed the history of the treatment of varicose veins in a paper published in 1929. Since then, various sclerosing agents have been used by many surgeons who gave injections freely and without too much consideration of possible dangers. It is time to call attention to the possible dangers in the use of sclerosing material. . . .
