Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the feasibility,safety and effectiveness of percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy (PMT) and iliac vein stent implantation which are accomplished by single-procedure in treating acute deep venous thrombosis (DVT) of lower extremity.Methods During the period from December 2014 to January 2016,a total of 12 patients with acute DVT of lower extremity,including 3 males and 9 females with a mean age of (50.42±16.21) years old,were admitted to authors' hospital to receive treatment.Clinically,all patients presented with left leg swelling and pain.Central type of DVT was seen in 3 patients and mixed type of DVT was found in 9 patients.Preoperative placement of inferior vena cava filter was employed in all patients,which was retrieved after the treatment.PMT by using Angio Jet thrombus removal catheter,balloon angioplasty,and iliac vein stent implantation were successively carried out during the same procedure.When residual thrombus was identified on checkup angiography the catheter sheath would be reserved,and the thrombolytic therapy would be adopted.The patients were followed up at outpatient clinic at one,3,6 and 12 months after the treatment,and reexamination of color ultrasound and/or lower limb venography was used to assess the blood flow in the deep veins and in the stents.Results The combination of several therapies was accomplished in a single procedure,the technical success rate was 100％.The used time for the operation was 60-110 minutes,with a mean of (96.25±14.32) minutes.The used time for thrombus aspiration was 51-280 seconds,with a mean of (199.92±74.89) seconds.Thrombus clearance rate of grade Ⅲ was obtained in 10 patients,and thrombus clearance rate of grade Ⅱ was seen in 2 patients;the clinical symptoms were improved in all patients.Except some patients complained of different degrees of pain during the performance of balloon dilatation of left common iliac vein,no serious complications such as pulmonary embolism,severe hemorrhage,etc.occurred.The patients were followed up for (5.58±2.75) months;color ultrasound and/or lower limb venography performed in 11 patients showed that the blood flow in deep veins and iliac vein stents was unobstructed,and relapse of DVT was observed in one patient with cerebral astrocytoma.Conclusion For the treatment of DVT of lower extremity,PMT combined with iliac vein stent implantation that is accomplished by single-procedure is safe and feasible,its preliminary clinical results are satisfactory.
