Comparison of AngioJet Thrombectomy System Versus Suction Catheter with the Adjunct of Catheter-Directed Thrombolysis for Lower Extremity Deep Venous Thrombosis
Abstract:Background This study aims to investigate the value of the AngioJet thrombectomy system with adjunct of catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) in treating lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (LEDVT). Methods 48 patients who were clinically confirmed LEDVT and treated by percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy (PMT) combined with CDT, were included in this retrospective study (AJ-CDT, n = 33; Suction-CDT, n = 15). Baseline characteristics, clinical outcomes and surveillance data were reviewed and analyzed. Result… Show more
