<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for treating an obstructed biological conduit. <P>SOLUTION: The method includes the administration of an agent that can decompose an extracellular matrix of an obstructing tissue. More specifically, the method includes a step for delivering a mixture consisting of one or more enzymes to an obstructed part or area to recover the normal flow of a transported body fluid that passes the conduit, since the enzyme(s) is capable of decomposing an extracellular matrix component in the occlusion. Further, the method includes a step for preventively expanding a part of the conduit so as to minimize the risk of obstruction formation. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
