[Blood and plasma viscosity and the distance of intermittent claudication in patients with type II diabetes and thrombophlebitis].

In 49 patients with insulin-resistant diabetes, with ischaemia of the lower extremities blood viscosity was measured at low coagulation rates and plasma viscosity was determined also. Moreover plasma measurements were done of total lipids, alpha-, pre-beta-, and beta lipoproteins, triglycerides, total cholesterol, free fatty acids, and, besides that, the hematocrit was measured. Immediately after blood sampling for rheological and biochemical investigations the distance of intermittent claudication was measured. A rather considerable increase of blood and plasma viscosity was noted in the patients in comparison with controls, other findings included disturbances of lipid metabolism, increased fibrinogen level, and a negative correlation between the distance of intermittent claudication and blood and plasma viscosity.

[Can ultrasonic scanning replace phlebography in the diagnosis of deep thrombophlebitis of the leg?].

Until recently, phlebography with contrast agents has been the standard method for demonstration of deep venous thrombosis in the lower limb (DVT). In recent years, however, this has been replaced to an increasing extent by ultrasonic scanning. In contrast to radiographic examination, this method does not require injection of a contrast agent and it does not employ ionizing irradiation. The principle of ultrasonic scanning is that a normal vein may be compressed flat by means of slight pressure from the transducer whereas a vein filled with thrombi cannot be compressed. Ultrasonic examination is not (yet?) of diagnostic value in the leg but, more centrally, it is of the same diagnostic value as radiographic examination. It is suggested that ultrasonic scanning can replace phlebography in patients with their first DVT. If this gives a negative result, it may possibly be supplemented by phlebography of the veins of the leg.

[Experience with the surgical treatment of superficial thrombophlebitis (varicophlebitis)].

107 patients with acute varicophlebitis of the lower limbs have been treated. In 101 cases operation were performed. These patients were treated by surgical excision of the thrombosed segments, with excision or stripping of the remaining varicosities and high saphena ligature. There were no postoperative deaths. One male patient experienced nonfatal minor pulmonary embolism. Wound-healing disturbances were observed in only 11 patients. Attention is drawn to the advantage of the surgical management. Regarding the good experiences, the authors recommend the performance of the "acute" varicectomy.

[Phlebographic follow-up of successful fibrinolytically-treated deep thrombophlebitis].

The present study deals with long-term results in patients in whom deep venous occlusions were removed by fibrinolytic treatment. For this an ultrahigh streptokinase regimen was used. The average follow-up period was 18.9 +/- 6.7 months. The number of patients investigated was 27. In the group of femoral veins formerly cleared by fibrinolysis 2 of 21 (9.5%) were recorded as reoccluded. An unexpected removal of a femoral thrombosis still in existence immediately after fibrinolytic therapy was seen in one patient and evaluated as a late lytic event. In the group of iliac vein thrombosis cleared by fibrinolytic treatment no reocclusions occurred. In conclusion it can be said that the reocclusion-tendency of veins cleared by fibrinolysis is relatively low. This finding constitutes a special incentive for fibrinolytic treatment of deep vein thrombosis.

Detection of thrombophlebitis with 111In-labeled anti-fibrin antibody: preliminary results.

Deep venous thrombosis remains a major medical problem, affecting a large segment of the population and resulting in significant mortality and morbidity. Current techniques available for detecting deep venous thrombosis present limitations that may mitigate their potential benefit to the patient. Invasive techniques, such as ascending contrast venography, carry risks to the patient with regard to complications such as an allergic reaction to an iodine dye, adverse effects to renal functions, and clot formation in a normal vein. Noninvasive techniques, such as Doppler ultrasound and impedance plethysmography, evaluate only a limited segment of the venous bed. The need remains for a diagnostic technique that is safe, accurate, and widely accessible. A readily available noninvasive scintigraphic technique utilizing radiolabeled monoclonal anti-fibrin antibody may overcome some of these shortcomings. This imaging examination is quite effective in detecting clots in the lower extremities. Compared to contrast venography, 111In-labeled anti-fibrin antibody imaging appears to be as sensitive in identifying acute venous thrombosis. In addition, the preliminary data indicate that anticoagulation with heparin may interfere with adequate visualization of the clots with this technique.

[Results of ultra-high streptokinase (Awelysin) doses in patients with thrombophlebitis].

The results of 6-hour fibrinolysis with ultra-high streptokinase doses in 30 patients with peripheral venous thrombosis were presented. In 33.3% of the patients complete, and in 40% partial repatency was attained, while no repatency occurred in 20%. Deterioration was observed in two patients. The most beneficial effects were seen in postoperative and posttraumatic thrombosis. Bleeding complications did not occur. In one female patient treatment was discontinued due to bronchospasm.
