Hypercoagulation disorders contribute to pathogenesis of purulent sinusitis and craniocerebral trauma. They may result in thrombotic complications. To prevent and correct these disorders we used intramaxillary administration of heparin. This treatment promoted fast regress of hypercoagulatory disturbances of hemostasis: improved plasma recalcification, plasma tolerance to heparin, weakened depression of euglobulin fibrinolysis, stimulated normalization of fibrinogen level. Heparin treatment was contraindicated in intracranial hematomas, recent subarachnoidal hemorrhages.
