[Do indications still exist for intra-arterial infiltrations in vascular pathology?].

Intra-arterial infiltrations are a useful therapeutic measure in various vascular diseases where it is important to obtain a lasting and rapid peripheral vasodilatation. In arteritis of the lower limbs, it is paradoxical to match infiltration against surgery. None of these two therapeutic measures can cure completely. Depending on the circumstances, infiltrations can be used at all the stages of arteritis, but the difficulties of applying them limit their use. In certain phlebitis mainly with arterial manifestations, infiltrations can relieve immediately the spasm. In trophic disorders of arterial or venous origin the help the formation of scars. Infiltrations should be used, however, only under maximal technical conditions, which render them harmless.

[Fibrocystic deterioration of the popliteal artery. Apropos of 1 case].

Set off by a sports movement, a subacute ischemia of the lower limb allowed the delayed discovery of a segmental stenosis of the popliteal artery in a young man. It involved a compression by fibro-cystic deterioration of the wall of the artery. Separation of the cyst from the diseased arterial wall was followed by the restoration of circulation by means of an internal saphenous vein graft.
