Abstract:
Two patients with acutely thrombosed femorofemoral bypass grafts are presented. Recombinant human tissue-type plasminogen activator (rt-PA) was used successfully in thrombolysis of the occluded grafts. Utilizing a new technique the grafts were punctured directly and bolus doses of rt-PA administered.
