✦ Synopsis

Venous thrombosis of a free flap is a serious complication in microsurgery. Several agents with the ability to dissolve an occluding thrombus exist. Recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) seems the most effective. We present our experience with a procedure that was successful in elimination of the occluding thrombus in two patients.

## Abstract Free flap vascular pedicle avulsion represents an extremely rare complication in reconstructive microsurgery. Very few cases have been reported in the literature, most of them identified in free flap breast reconstruction. As a result, little data is currently available on the etiology
