Abstract
The local fibrinolytic activity of the femoral, popliteal and soleal veins has been studied using a histochemical technique. The results suggest that the fibrinolytic activity in the soleal veins may be low when compared with that in the femoral and popliteal veins. This may be an aetiological factor responsible for the high incidence of thrombi occurring in the soleal veins.Keywords
