Promising novel technique for percutaneous extraction of chronic lower extremity deep venous thrombosis: clinical experience with the ClotTriever system
Objective Venous thrombosis, including deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary
embolism, has an annual incidence of 1 per 1000 adults. Iliofemoral DVT is especially
associated with increased risk of pulmonary embolism and post-thrombotic syndrome.
Whereas early clot removal, facilitated by lysis and mechanical thrombectomy, has been
shown to be effective for acute DVT, there is no promising endovascular treatment of the
chronic component of DVT currently. We report on our experience with the novel ClotTriever …
