Abstract
Colloidal plasma substitutes, particularly dextrans, are increasingly used for thrombosis prophylaxis (1, 4, 5, 6, 8). Intra- and postoperatively they serve for volume substitution and for thrombosis prophylaxis as well. In internal medicine dextrans are used for prophylaxis of myocardial infarction, cerebral vascular accidents and thrombosis of arteriovenous shunts in patients on hemodialysis (7). The effect in thrombosis prophylaxis of dextran seems to be com-parable with that of oral anticoagulants.
