      <hc_freetext>Acute liofemoral veins thrombosis.</hc_freetext>
      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention: lytic therapy will be achieved by placing a catheter in the contralateral femoral vein, the right internal jugular vein, or the ipsilateral popliteal vein for direct intra-clot infusion. An attempt will be made to cross the thrombosed vein with a 0.035-inch guide wire. Once the guide wire crossed the thrombus, multiple side-hole catheters will be advanced into the thrombus to assure maximum delivery of the lytic agent. Streptokinase will be given as a loading dose of 250,000 units followed by infusion of 100,000 units per hour for 24 to 48 hours. Heparin will be administered concomitantly with the lytic therapy and continued until therapeutic anticoagulation with warfarin will be accomplished. aPTT levels will be obtained before and every 12 hours after thrombolytic therapy has been started. Effect of treatment will be assessed daily by venography.Thrombus lysis will be quantified by using thrombus lysis score. Therapy will be continued until maximum lysis will be achieved. After lytic therapy, further intervention (PTA/stenting) will be performed if there is an underlying venous stenosis of 50% or more. Stent placement will be done with appropriate selected stents (self-expanding stainless steel wall stents). All stented patients will be given warfarin indefinitely (INR 2–3). Lysis will be considered complete if there is less than 5% residual thrombus. Intervention 2: Control: conventional treatment will consist of intravenous heparin followed by warfarin. A loading dose of 5,000 to 10,000 units heparin followed by 1,000 to 2,000 units per hour will be given by continuous intravenous infusion. The dose will be adjusted to achieve an activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) of twice the control value. Heparin will be given for 5 to 7 days. Warfarin will be initiated within 48 to 72 hours and will be continued as standard guidelines.  The warfarin dose will be adjusted to achieve a prothrombin time of 1.5 to 2 times control or an international normalized ratio (INR) of 2 to 3. All patients will be treated with limb elevation and moist heat during their initial admission and maintained on prescription gradient compression stockings.</i_freetext>
