Epidural venous system of the human corps are injected by a fortacryl-minium mixture then dissected with detail. These study confirms existence of two longitudinal venous plexus: one anterior and internal, one another anterior and external. There is no posterior longitudinal venous plexus.
Using 31 corrosion preparations with fortacryl-minium, a new systematization of lumbar internal vertebral veins is suggested. The classical posterior longitudinal vein was not found. An anterior-lateral venous flow, composed of an anterior-internal venous canal and of an anterior-external venous canal was described. These venous canals jointly progress along internal face of the pedicle and leave a wider space between them in front of the exit foramina, to allow the passage of roots. The authors then study the transversal veins, the junction of the lumbar column with the sacral column and veins of the exit foramina.

The authors compared different methods of medical visualisation (standard radiography, arteriography, quantitative isotope bone scan, telethermography, CT scan, visualisation by nuclear magnetic resonance) in 52 osteogenic sarcomas. In the majority of cases the diagnosis was suggested by standard X-rays at the first visit. CT scan and visualisation by nuclear magnetic resonance are the two basic examinations both in terms of assessing the future single block excision as well as deciding the approach to be used for biopsy. Telethermography and quantitative isotope bone scan usefully complement clinical examination and standard X-rays in following the course during chemotherapy. Arteriography is indicated only in the presence of large tumors threatening the vessels directly.
