Device and Imaging-Specific Volumetric Analysis of Clot Lysis After Percutaneous Mechanical Thrombectomy for Iliofemoral DVT

Abstract

IVUS is superior to venography for detection of residual thrombus and underlying venous pathology after pharmacomechanical thrombectomy. While greater clot lysis was seen with the AngioJet system, both the AngioJet and Trellis devices resulted in excellent clinical clot lysis.
