Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the feasibility,safety and effectiveness of integrated treatmentwith comprehensively interventional techniques for acute deep venous thrombosis(DVT)of lower extremity. Methods During the period from June 2016 to June 2017,a total of 23 patients with acute DVT ofunilateral lower extremity were admitted to authors' hospital to receive integrated treatment. AngioJetthrombectomy,balloon angioplasty and iliac vein stent implantation were performed in the same setting.Angiography was performed immediately after the procedure. If the thrombus clearance rate was grade Ⅲand there were no large free clots(>5mm)in the lower extremity vein and inferior vena cava,the inferiorvena cava filters would be retrieved through their sheath,otherwise,the inferior vena cava filters would bereleased. All patients received continuous transcatheter infusion of urokinase until the thrombosis wasconfirmed to be completely dissolved. The patients were followed up at outpatient clinic at 1,3,6 and 12months after the treatment,and reexamination of color ultrasound and/or lower limb venography was used toassess the blood flow in the deep veins and in the stents. Results Angiography postoperatively showedthrombus clearance rate of grade Ⅲ was obtained in 20 patients(87%)who were successfully accomplishedintegrated treatment. The inferior vena cava filters had been retrieved after thrombolysis in 3 patients(13%)with thrombus clearance rate of grade Ⅱ. Twenty-one stents were implanted directly after thrombectomy in21 patients with iliac vein stenosis. There were no serious complications such as pulmonary embolism,severe hemorrhage,etc. Venous patency was confirmed by color ultrasound or lower limb venography. Conclusion Integrated treatment with comprehensively interventional techniques is feasible,safe,andeffective for acute DVT of lower extremity
