Abstract

Together with the classical conservative treatment or the rarely necessary surgical thrombectomy in patients with acute deep vein thrombosis, catheter-directed thrombolysis is becoming more and more popular. This review provides a critical view on the evidence for catheter-directed thrombolysis providing a "Contra" position in contrast to the "Pro" position also published in this issue.
