Although venous stent placement is an established treatment for patients with deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS), stent patency rate may be as low as 80% at 12 months. Treatment of stent occlusion requires the removal of a large amount of fresh or organized thrombus from stents with a diameter of 12-20 mm. The feasibility of large-bore rotational thrombectomy in combination with angioplasty to treat thrombosed venous iliofemoral or inferior vena cava stents has not been investigated yet.
