Article Description

The totality of elastic and plastic forces was defined at 168 specimens of human inferior caval veins. Age and dates of disruption correlate negatively (37%). In opposite to other authors, who examined the elasticity by the retraction in situ, we could statistically verify only a low dependence. On the other hand we found, that the total performance and the elastic and plastic forces depended on the chronical congestion in the general circulation as result of right heart failure. Likewise there could be proved a dependence of elasticity on the constitutional type, while as result of toxical-infectious damage the total performance was diminished. Dimorphism of sexus relative to the elasticity of the Vv. could be verified. Against regressive changes of age of the wall of vein stands the increase of elastic, collagenic und muscle fibres as result of haemodynamic. From the functionally caused distribution of quantity a wide dispersion results at the distribution of the elastic and plastic forces in the whole of the persons elder than 50 years. In this interdependence the hemodynamic has the decisive influence. © 1973 Dr. Dietrich Steinkopff Verlag.
