    Abstract:
    Out of 102 patients suffering from deep venous thrombosis of leg and pelvis 46 of them underwent thrombectomy with excellent results in 73.9%; in 23.9% the result was good, one patient came to death due to pulmonary embolism. In no case a postthrombotic syndrome could be traced. 23 patients (22.5%) underwent thrombolysis by Streptokinase. In no case the result was excellent, in 19 patients this treatment showed satisfactory results, 2 patients developed a postthrombotic syndrome, 2 patients died of haemorrhage. 33 patients (32.25%) were treated by a combination of heparin and acetyl-salicylic acid. A good result could only be obtained in 2 patients, a postthrombotic syndrome developed in the remaining 31 cases.
