[Streptokinase therapy in a patient with lupus anticoagulant and thrombosis of the A. iliaca externa].
We report on a 26-year-old male who suffered from thrombocytopenia, factor V-deficiency and punctuate hemorrhages during the past. On admission the patient presented with acute left iliac artery occlusion. The walking distance was reduced to 200 m. Laboratory findings showed the existence of a lupus anticoagulant (LAC). As a therapeutical attempt a systemic lysis with high doses of streptokinase (9,250,000 I.E.) was carried out which was followed by a successful catheter lysis (250,000 I.E. streptokinase). During lysis the patient didn't show any unusual hemorrhagic events. Arterial thrombosis together with a lupus anticoagulant can be treated with high doses of streptokinase.
