RESUMO
Two children with Budd-Chiari syndrome were successfully submitted to thrombolytic therapy. This study suggests that streptokinase is safe and effective in the treatment of this syndrome and should be considered as primary treatment in case of early diagnosedacute disease in view of the poor prognosis and the agressiveness of surgical treatment currently available.
