Abstract No. 23 Catheter-directed therapy for pediatric patients with deep venous thrombosis and underlying May-Thurner syndrome

Abstract

Some pediatric patients develop left lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT) due to May-Thurner syndrome (MTS), an anatomical variant in which the right common iliac artery compresses the left common iliac vein against the lumbar spine. This case series seeks to document endovascular therapy, including catheter-directed thrombolysis/pharmaco-mechanical thrombectomy (CDT) and venous stenting for this subpopulation, which is underreported in current literature.
