Popis: An intra-arterial infusion of streptokinase successfully dissolved a large thrombus of the renal artery in a 54-year old male patient with old-standing mitral stenosis. This case illustrates the effectiveness of fibrinolysis in situ. This method provides complete arterial recanalization and preserves the renal function, thus enabling surgical embolectomy to be performed.
