Streptokinase treatment of deep vein thrombosis is reviewed, with emphasis on the mechanism of action of streptokinase, the bleeding caused by this agent, and incomplete thrombolysis. Criteria for successful thrombolysis and the advantages of intermittent streptokinase therapy to overcome the problems of bleeding and incomplete thrombolysis are discussed.
