Abstract:
Objective To investigate the method and effect of endovascular treatment for ilio-femoral venous post-thrombotic syndrome.Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 47 patients,who underwent endovascular treatment for ilio-femoral venous post-thrombotic syndrome from January 2010 to December 2013.Patients received transjugular iliofemoral venous thrombectomy,percutaneous angioplasty (PTA) and/or endovascular stent placement after inferior vena cava filter was implanted.Results All patients were successfully treated with angioplasty and stent placement.The ilio-femoral venous were patent after the placement of the stent.Chronic ulcer in 7 patients healed within one month.The patency rate of the affected limb at 6 months was 88.9%,occlusion rate was 11.1%.No reblocked cases were found during venous ultrasound follow-up.After treatment,the circumference difference of low limb between affected and normal limb decreased from (2.46 ± 0.98) cm to (0.70 ± 0.19) cm (P <0.05) at the level of 15 cm above knee,and from (3.28 ±0.85) cm to (0.83 ±0.26) cm (P<0.05) at the level of 15 cm below knee.Villalta score decreased from (12.0 ± 1.9) to (6.9 ±2.2,P < 0.05) and symptoms were significantly improved.Conclusions Ilio-femoral venous stenting provides a safe,effective and minimal invasive approach for the treatment of post-thrombotic syndrome.Acceptable patency rates can be expected through short-term follow-up.
