Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of kissing-stent implantation in the treatment of chronic iliac-vena cava occlusion.Methods The clinical data of 22 patients with chronic iliac-vena cava occlusion,who received kissing-stent implantation,were retrospectively analyzed.The surgical success rate and the procedure-related complications were recorded,the postoperative 3-,6-and 12-month stent patency rates were calculated,and the postoperative 6-month Villalta score was compared with its preoperative value.Results The technical success rate of kissing-stent implantation was 100%.No procedure-related surgical complications occurred.The postoperative 3-,6-and 12-month stent patency rates were 95.5%,90.9%and 86.1%respectively.The postoperative 6-month Villalta score was(12.14±2.80)points,which was remarkably lower than preoperative(20.91±3.16)points,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion The implantation of kissing-stent can successfully reconstruct iliac-vena cava with satisfactory short-term efficacy for chronic iliac-vena cava occlusion.
