[The half-life of iodine 131-labelled fibrinogen in cancer patients. Effects of heparin].

Sixty nine patients suffering from malignant tumours at different stages of their development underwent a kinetic study of fibrinogen 131I with external counting over the tumour and a study of haemostasis including P.D.F. The 1/2 T of fibrinogen 131I is shortened: 2.52 +/- 0.09 days (normal: 3.89 +/- 0.11 days.) The abnormality is proportional to serum P.D.F. levels (r=0.99). External counting demonstrated the uptake of labelled fibrinogen in the tumour. Heparine (15000 U/24h) restores the 1/2 T of fibrinogen to normal in 95 p. cent of cases. The results suggest the existence of a localised compensated intravascular coagulation process inside the tumour. Possible consequences of that phenomenon are discussed.

[Von Willebrand factor activity and thrombophilic states. A review (author's transl)].

After a brief survey of some physiologic properties of Von Willebrand factor activity (VIII r WF) the numerous clinical states with an increase of this activity are described. The authors report their own results concerning sepsis, chronic arteritis of lower limbs, diabetes, toxemia of pregnancy. In most cases the increase of VIII r WF activity appears as a sign of vascular injury and/or the consequence of tissular damage.
