Early clinical outcomes of a novel rheolytic directional thrombectomy technique for patients with iliofemoral deep vein thrombosis

BACKGROUND Rheolytic thrombectomy (RT) for acute iliofemoral deep vein thrombosis (DVT) with first-generation techniques is often incomplete and adjunctive conventional catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) is required in more than half of patients to achieve venous patency. PATIENTS AND METHODS From the prospective Bern Venous Stent Registry, we investigated rates of primary treatment success, primary patency, and post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) from 40 consecutive patients (mean age 51 ± 19 years, 45 % women) with acute iliofemoral DVT, treated with a novel directional RT technology and stent placement. Overall, 24 patients were treated for native-vessel iliofemoral DVT (11 with single-session RT, 13 with bail-out RT after failed CDT) and 16 for iliofemoral stent thrombosis. Pulse-spray thrombolysis (r-tPA 10 mg) was performed in 29 (73 %) patients. The mean follow-up duration was 193 ± 132 days (minimum 90 days). RESULTS Overall, primary treatment success of RT was 95 %; only two patients required adjunctive CDT to restore patency. In 24 patients with native-vessel DVT, six-month primary patency was 92 % (95 %CI 75-99 %), and 23 patients (96 %) were free from the PTS according to the Villalta score. In 16 patients with stent thrombosis, six-month primary patency was 63 % (95 %CI 35-85 %) and 50 % were free from PTS. Except for transient macroscopic haemoglobinuria in all patients, no other side effects were recorded. CONCLUSIONS In patients with iliofemoral DVT of native or stented vessels, RT followed by stent placement appears to be effective and safe. The novel technique enables single-session DVT treatment in the majority of patients without the need for prolonged CDT

Multilayer compression bandaging in the acute phase of deep-vein thrombosis has no effect on the development of the post-thrombotic syndrome.

METHODS: Sixty-nine patients with acute symptomatic DVT were randomized to immediate bandaging (n = 34) or no bandaging (n = 35). After reduction of edema sized-to-fit elastic stockings were applied in all patients after 7-14 days. Follow-up visits and non-invasive examinations were planned after 7, 30 and 90 days and 1 year. Venous outflow resistance (VOR) was measured by strain gauge plethysmography. Thrombosis score (TS) and reflux were measured by duplex scanning. After one year patients were evaluated for clinical PTS using both the clinical scale of the CEAP classification and the Villalta score. RESULTS: Improvement of clinical symptoms and decrease of leg circumference was better on day 7 in the bandaging group, but after 1 and 3 months clinical symptoms had improved equally in both groups. In 7 patients in the no-bandaging group a bandage was applied after all because of persistent edema after 10 days. There were no differences in VOR, TS and reflux. Using the CEAP classification the incidence of PTS was 39% in patients with bandages and 42% in patients without bandages (RR 0.91, 95% CI 0.50-1.66). Using the Villalta score the incidence of PTS was resp. 29 and 33% (RR 0.87, 95% CI 0.41-1.8). There was no difference in severity of PTS. CONCLUSION: Immediate multilayer compression bandaging in the acute phase of DVT is effective in reducing edema and complaints in the first week, but has no effect on thrombus regression, valve incompetence and the development of clinical PTS after 1 year

Relationships between the use of pharmacomechanical catheter-directed thrombolysis, sonographic findings, and clinical outcomes in patients with acute proximal DVT: Results from the ATTRACT Multicenter Randomized Trial.

Few studies have documented relationships between endovascular therapy, duplex ultrasonography (DUS), post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS), and quality of life (QOL). The Acute Venous Thrombosis: Thrombus Removal with Adjunctive Catheter-Directed Thrombolysis (ATTRACT) trial randomized 692 patients with acute proximal deep vein thrombosis (DVT) to receive anticoagulation or anticoagulation plus pharmacomechanical catheter-directed thrombolysis (PCDT). Compression DUS was obtained at baseline, 1 month and 12 months. Reflux DUS was obtained at 12 months in a subset of 126 patients. Clinical outcomes were collected over 24 months. At 1 month, patients who received PCDT had less residual thrombus compared to Control patients, evidenced by non-compressible common femoral vein (CFV) (21% vs 35%
