Abstract

A double-blind trial was designed to investigate the efficacy of low-dose heparin in preventing deep-vein thrombosis (DVT) after open prostatectomy. The diagnosis of DVT was established by the 125I-fibrinogen test. The incidence of DVT was 39.4% in the control group (33 patients) and 9.7% in the heparin group (31 patients) (p<0.01). These results suggest that low-dose heparin effectively prevents DVT after open prostatectomy. © 1980 Springer-Verlag.SCOPUS: ar.jinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishe
