title: [Fibrinolytic therapy in thrombosis of the main arteries].
abstract: Fibrinolytic therapy (FLT) was applied in 79 patients, aged from 37 to 76 years, suffering from thromboses of the main arteries of the pelvis and lower extremities. The duration of the disease ranged from one day to 8 months. FLT was conducted with streptokinase preparations: streptodekase, avelysin, and celiase. FLT lasted 24 hours on average (from 7 hours to 3 days depending on the duration of the disease). The main blood flow in the affected arterial segment was completely restored in 49 (62%) patients. In 30 (38%) cases attempts to restore the blood flow failed. The affected extremity was amputated in 4 patients. Severe hemorrhagic complications occurred in 4%., small subcutaneous hematomas in 14.4%, fragmentation of thrombi with the development of distal embolism in 7.6% of cases, anaphylactic shock developed in one patient. Four patients died.
