Objective To investigate the method and effect of endovascular treatment for ilio-femoral venous post-thrombotic syndrome.Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 47 patients,who underwent endovascular treatment for ilio-femoral venous post-thrombotic syndrome from January 2010 to December 2013.Patients received transjugular iliofemoral venous thrombectomy,percutaneous angioplasty (PTA) and/or endovascular stent placement after inferior vena cava filter was implanted.Results All patients were successfully treated with angioplasty and stent placement.The ilio-femoral venous were patent after the placement of the stent.Chronic ulcer in 7 patients healed within one month.The patency rate of the affected limb at 6 months was 88.9％,occlusion rate was 11.1％.No reblocked cases were found during venous ultrasound follow-up.After treatment,the circumference difference of low limb between affected and normal limb decreased from (2.46 ± 0.98) cm to (0.70 ± 0.19) cm (P ＜0.05) at the level of 15 cm above knee,and from (3.28 ±0.85) cm to (0.83 ±0.26) cm (P＜0.05) at the level of 15 cm below knee.Villalta score decreased from (12.0 ± 1.9) to (6.9 ±2.2,P ＜ 0.05) and symptoms were significantly improved.Conclusions Ilio-femoral venous stenting provides a safe,effective and minimal invasive approach for the treatment of post-thrombotic syndrome.Acceptable patency rates can be expected through short-term follow-up.

Thyroid hormone is an important hormone for regulating cell differentiation,growth and metabolism.Many studies have shown that thyroid hormone can induce turmor angiogenesis after binding with the integrin ανβ3 receptor at cell surface.Tetraiodothyroacetic acid is the analogue of thyroid hormone,and can inhibit tumor angiogenesis by inhibiting the binding of thyroid hormone with integrin ανβ3.Studying the role of thyroid hormone in promoting tumor angiogenesis may provide a new approach for molecular targeted therapy of tumor.
