Abstract
The 125I-labelled fibrinogen test has been used to assess the incidence of deep venous thrombosis in 88 patients who had undergone elective aorto-iliac reconstruction. Deep venous thrombosis was detected in 18 (20·5 per cent). The results suggest that these patients merit prophylaxis.Keywords
