Abstract

In this three year prospective study of 177 patients with acute peripheral arterial ischemia those subjects with acute Illofemoral emboli or ischemia with a neurosensory deficit had urgent operations. The remainder included patients less likely to have limb salvage after surgery and who therefore were treated with thrombolytic therapy. This was done In three open studies of Intravenous, acyiated, plasminogenstreptokinase activator complex, low dose intraarterial streptokinase and intraarterial tissue-plasminogen activator (t-PA). The overall outcome after 30 days of
