Abstract

Objective: The treatment of Iliofemoral venous outflow with dedicated nitinol venous stents has changed treatment options for patients with chronic venous obstruction. In post thrombotic syndrome, the disease often extends from the caval confluence to common femoral vein (CFV) confluence. Paucity of data on the prevalence and long term sequelae of venous stent compromise exists when stents are placed below the inguinal ligament. This study aimed to determine the re-intervention rate for stent compromise in stents placed below the inguinal ligament in a tertiary centre.
