Abstract:
Objective To summary the experience of AngioJet mechanical thrombectomy for the treatment of acute deep venous thrombosis (DVT) of lower extremity.Methods Clinical data of 28 patients suffering from acute DVT of lower extremities treated by AngioJet mechanical thrombectomy were analyzed retrospectively from October 2013 to February 2015.Venous recanalization was graded by a thrombus score based on pre-and post-treatment venography.Follow-up was performed by Doppler ultrasound and clinical evaluation.Results Twelve patients were planted temporary vena cava filters.The average length of hospitalization was (3.9 ± 1.1) days.The average operation time was (1.2 ± 0.4) hours.The dosage of urokinase was (320 ± 120) × 104 U and heparin was (46 ± 10)mg during surgery.The average reduction of hemoglobin was (7.5 ± 2.6) g/L.Two patients (Grade Ⅰ thrombolysis) were converted to catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT).There were 10 (35.7%) cases achieving grade Ⅱ and 16 (57.1%) cases achieving grade Ⅲ,respectively.Technique success rate were 92.9%.Minor bleeding events occurred in 2 patients.Nine (32.1%) patients had stents implanted.One year follow-up found patent deep venous in 26 (92.9%) patients and stent patency rate was 88.9% (1/9).Two (7.1%) cases developed mild postthrombotic syndrome (PTS).Conclusion AngioJet is a safe and effective tool to treat acute DVT accelerating thrombolytic therapy,and reducing bleeding complications.
