Abstract:
Objective:To investigate whether the clinical efficacy of mechanical pharmacothrombectomy (PMT) in treatment of whole-lower-limb acute deep vein thrombosis (DVT) could be improved by the modified approach removing popliteal vein thrombosis.Methods:From Mar 2016 to Mar 2018, 31 patients with whole-lower-limb acute DVT were enrolled and treated with PMT by AngioJet. The clinical data was retrospectively analyzed, and the clinical efficacy was evaluated.Results:26 cases were treated by contralateral common femoral vein approach and the other 5 cases by ipsilateral calf deep vein. Urokinase was given in bolus in 29 patients before thrombectomy. After PMT, 7 cases combined with catheter-directed thrombolysis. 26 cases underwent iliac vein PTA, and 14 cases underwent iliac vein stenting. The average hospitalization days was (7.6±1.8) d. The thrombus clearance rate was grade Ⅱ (50%~99%) in 16 cases (51.6%) and grade Ⅲ (100%) in 15 cases (48.4%). 30 patients were followed up and the mean follow-up time was 19.7 months. The 12-month primary patency rate was 83.3%. All the 5 patients with occlusion had different degrees of post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS), and the incidence of PTS was 16.7% (5/30).Conclusions:The modified approach to treat the whole-lower-limb acute deep vein thrombosis with PMT is safe and effective. The popliteal vein thrombosis can be cleared in one stage. The blood inflow can be improved, and the incidence of PTS is relatively low.
