Abstract
The postphlebitic syndrome is a result of previous deep vein thrombosis and presents with oedema, pain, induration, pigmentation and ulceration. Extravascular deposition of fibrin is associated with reduced fibrinolytic activity in these patients. In a double-blind crossover study there was evidence of benefit from stanozolol which enhanced fibrinolytic activity. No side effects of any consequence were noted with a dosage of 5 mg twice per day.
