Congenital absence of useful ilio-caval venous segment is a very infrequent congenital anomaly and makes unfit grafting of a kidney transplant in iliac fossa. We report the case of a 18 years old male affected by this abnormality who was transplanted in intraabdominal situation. We review technical alternatives offered by the literature.

Objective: Effective treatment options are available for chronic venous insufficiency associated with superficial venous reflux. Although many patients with C2 and C3 disease based on the CEAP (Clinical-Etiological-Anatomical-Pathophysiological) classification have combined great saphenous vein (GSV) and saphenofemoral junction (SFJ) reflux, some may not have concomitant SFJ reflux. Several payors have determined that symptom severity in patients without SFJ reflux does not warrant treatment.

Background: Venous stenting is increasingly used to manage femoro-ilio-caval venous outflow obstruction/stenosis due to post-thrombotic syndrome. Although the safety, efficacy, and long-term patency of venous stents have been reported, re-interventions due to stent occlusion and in-stent restenosis (ISR) have also been reported. The mechanism of ISR and the in-stent neointimal growth after venous stenting remains unclear.

Objective: Iliofemoral venous stenting has become the standard of care for patients presenting with quality-of-life impairing symptoms of chronic iliofemoral venous obstruction not responding to conservative measures. This has led to an increased use of venous stenting over the last several years. However, iliofemoral venous anatomy in patients requiring such intervention remains poorly elucidated.

Objective: Report the usefulness of completion cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) as an adjunct tool during femoro-ilio-caval recanalization post stent placement.
Methods: Data from patients who underwent complex endovenous recanalization for chronic proximal outflow obstruction from January 2018 to May 2020 were analyzed. Two groups of patients were obtained based on the execution or not of completion CBCT.

Objective: We sought to investigate mid-term clinical outcomes and identify risk factors in one of the largest comprehensive series reported of femoro-ilio-caval (FIC) vein stent placement.
Background: Endovascular intervention with balloon angioplasty and stenting of the iliac and common femoral veins has become first-line treatment for symptomatic deep venous outflow obstruction.
Methods: We conducted a single-center, retrospective analysis of 180 patients who underwent FIC stent implantation between May 2017 and May 2019; 327 procedures were performed.
