[Paget-von Schroetter syndrome: case description in the light of the literature].
A 27 year old patient with a thrombosis of the subclavian vein (Paget- von Schroetter's-syndrome) was treated successfully with a systemic streptokinase thrombolysis. Indications and success of the different therapeutic ways in current literature (conventional management, systemic and local thrombolysis) are compared to each other. The authors prefer treatment with systemic thrombolysis, patients with contraindications should be treated with conservative management. Nevertheless no final conclusions can be drawn, as there are no controlled studies comparing the different concepts in treatment.
