      Abstract

      The administration of the anabolic steroid stanazolol during 7,8 days as pretreatment before thrombolytic therapy of acute or subacute arterial occlusions enhances the fibrinolytic potential significantly.On average the plasminogen increased from 101% to 133%, the euglobulin lysis time after venous stasis was shortened and the α2-antiplasmin remained constant. This effect could be favourable to prepare patients undergoing thrombolytic treatment.
