context1: Love and Whelan proposed a classification of this pathology into four types, according to the various relationships between the popliteal artery and the muscles of the popliteal space. Rich and Hughes described popliteal <strong>vein</strong> compression, thus adding a fifth type into the former classification. The functional type of the popliteal <strong>vessel</strong> compression was first described by Rignault et al.
context2: The streams are only mountain torrents to within a few miles of the coast; the mouth of the Khwa forms a good anchorage for <strong>vessels</strong> of from 9 to 10 ft. draught. The rocks in the Arakan Range and its spurs are metamorphic, and comprise clay, slates, ironstone and indurated sandstone; towards the south, ironstone, trap and rocks of basaltic character are common; <strong>veins</strong> of steatite and white fibrous quartz are also found. The rainfall in 1905 was 23-49 in.
