    Notes: Summary The sensitivity of the radiofibrinogen test was investigated to determine the accuracy of the test in diagnosis of venographically proven venous thrombosis in 70 heparinized patients.125J-fibrinogen was administered between 2 h and 4 days (mean: 1.5 days) after initiating heparin therapy. There were two criteria for a positive test: (a) if the difference between the counts for adjacent points on the same leg or equivalent sites on opposite legs was at least 15%; and/or (b) if there were three adjacent points each with counts 〉5% that of the same three points on the other leg. The fibrinogen uptake test was positive at the first examination in 67 of 70 patients, giving a sensitivity of 96%. The respective frequencies of truly abnormal results for the 3×5% and the 1×15% criteria were 94% and 71%. As far as localization and extension of thrombosis were concerned, the fibrinogen uptake test agreed with phlebography in 73% of the cases, when the counts in the groin and the upper third of the thigh were ignored. The125J-fibrinogen uptake test is an accurate method for detecting established deep leg vein thrombosis even in anticoagulated patients.

    Description / Table of Contents: Abstract Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty in conjunction with stent implantation (PTAS) is the treatment of choice in several indications. Despite its frequent use in supraaortic arterial disease and the scientific effort to establish PTAS of the internal carotid artery there is relatively little data in the literature to provide an evidence-based ground for periinterventional medical therapy. This article reviews the current periprocedural protocols and gives an overview of the hemodynamic management as necessary in carotid PTAS. Furthermore, problems of antithrombotic therapy with heparin and platelet inhibitors are discussed and a short introduction into medical cerebroprotection and thrombolytic therapy in ischemic cerebrovascular events is given.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Die perkutane transluminale Angioplastie und Stentimplantation (PTAS) stellt heute in zahlreichen Indikationen das Behandlungsverfahren der Wahl dar. Trotz der häufigen Anwendung der Methode bei der arteriellen Verschlusskrankheit der supraaortalen Gefäße und der wissenschaftlichen Anstrengungen zur Etablierung der PTAS im Bereich der A. carotis interna liegen kaum Daten im Sinne der Evidence Based Medicine zur periinterventionellen Pharmakotherapie vor. Diese Übersicht stellt die derzeit gängigen ajuvanten Therapieregimes dar und gibt eine Übersicht zum hämodynamischen Management während der Karotis-PTAS. Weiter werden Probleme der antithrombotischen Therapie mit Heparin und Thrombozytenfunktionshemmern diskutiert und eine Einführung in die medikamentöse Zerebroprotektion und die thrombolytische Therapie bei ischämischen zerebrovaskulären Ereignissen gegeben.
