Take Notes

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. It is often necessary to practice a resection of the atriophied skin, followed by a skin graft.
