[Lower limb varicose veins in textile workers]. 1978

W Lambrecht, and M Galikowski, and J Cieślewicz, and K Majchrzak

441 women working in various textile industry plants were examined to detect possible varicose veins, ulceration of shins, post thrombotic syndrome and active thrombotically inflammable changes. Frequency of the above mentioned changes was evaluated withthe following criteria: age, duration of employment in textile industry and work-post. Additionally, sickness absenteeism analysis was done in patients treated preventively and by operation. Investigations carried out indicate that the frequency of varicose veins in lower limbs, of trophic changes, shin ulceration, thrombotically inflamed processes increases with age and duration of employment in textile industry, resulting in considerable sickness absenteeism. The surgeon working in a given plant should detect varicose veins in lower limbs as early as possible and send his patients for an operation. Operation prevents many complications and shortens duration of disablement for work.
