Abstract:
Objective To evaluate catheter-directed thrombolysis through popliteal vein for the treatment of lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT). Method A total of 62 patients with single symptomatic lower limb DVT were analyzed. The popliteal vein of symptomatic limb was punctured, under Doppler guidance a 5-F sheath was advanced into the deep vein. A catheter was advanced beyond the thrombus. After a bolus of 200 000 IU urokinase, 100 000 IU/h urokinase was infused for up to three days, meanwhile 400 IU heparin was administered subcutaneously every 12h. Clinical efficacy grade was evaluated by measuring the perimeter of legs and lysis grade was calculated based on venographic results. Results In addition to total or partial removal of the thrombus collateral circulation increased, the limbs edema reduction rate was 78% and the thrombolysis rate was 67%. Thrombolysis rate in acute, and relapsing cases was significantly higher than in chronic group (75%,and 71% vs. 49%,P
