title: [Treatment of iliac artery stenosis with low dose streptokinase (author's transl)].
abstract: Ten patients with 13 stenoses in the pelvic area were treated with low doses of streptokinase (30 000 U/h) for 72 hours. A significant improvement in the degree of stenosis was obtained as shown by post-stenotic pressure values. Biochemically there was a marked plasminaemia with moderately low fibrinogen levels. Streptokinase treatment with low doses could form an alternative method of treatment in arterial stenoses.
