title: [Trental forte in leg ulcer therapy. Result of a field study].
abstract: In an open field study, 70 patients with leg ulcers, some existing already for a long time, were treated with Pentoxifylline in addition to the hitherto applied local therapy. The treatment usually comprised two months with a daily dosage of 800 mg up to 1200 mg (2 to 3 coated tablets Trental forte per day). More than 80% of patients with medium size ulcers could be cured by this therapy. The medicament was well tolerated.
