With lysis-block technique an over-systolic tourniquet is put on the thigh or upper arm. The fibrinolytic substance is injected into a dorsal foot vein or forearm vein. By using this strictly local lysis it was possible to remove distal venous and arterial occlusions. During over-systolic blockade there was only a minimal link between the blocked part of the limb and systemic circulation. By choosing a lytic substance with a short half-life-period (rt-PA) the systemic effect after loosening the blockade was small. LBT is a new and interesting method for the fibrinolytic treatment of peripheral venous and arterial occlusions. The procedure is characterized by minimal systemic reactions and it can probably be applied in those patients with contraindications for systemic lysis.

D010959 Tissue Plasminogen Activator A proteolytic enzyme in the serine protease family found in many tissues which converts PLASMINOGEN to FIBRINOLYSIN. It has fibrin-binding activity and is immunologically different from UROKINASE-TYPE PLASMINOGEN ACTIVATOR. The primary sequence, composed of 527 amino acids, is identical in both the naturally occurring and synthetic proteases.
