Abstract
Subsequent to an infectious mononucleosis a 15 year old girl developed a thrombosis of the iliaca vein. Laboratory evaluation revealed a heterozygous form of protein C deficiency. An infusion with r-tPA (= recombinant tissue plasminogen activator) at a rate of 0.02 mg/kg BW/h over 96 hours failed to reopen the vessel. After intermittent heparin therapy longterm treatment with coumarin began. Three months later the iliaca vein was partially recanalised.
