Multi-factor analysis of failure for modified single-session Angiojet rheolytic thrombectomy in treatment of acute iliofemoral venous thrombosis from iliac vein compression syndrome

Abstract

Purpose

To explore the risk factors of failure for modified single-session Angiojet rheolytic thrombectomy combined with directed iliac vein stenting, directed filter retrieval in the treatment of iliac vein compression with iliofemoral vein thrombosis.

Methods

During September 2017 to September 2021, 278 patients with DVT were retrospectively analyzed and 203 were eligible for inclusion. All patients were tried to take modified single-session Angiojet rheolytic thrombectomy combined with directed iliac vein stenting, directed filter retrieval treatment. The perioperative factors were analyzed between groups: group 1—modified single-session therapy succeed, and group 2—modified single-session therapy failed. The high risk factors of failure group were evaluated by logistic regression analysis.

Results

48 patients failed in modified single-session therapy, up to 23.64%. Single factor analysis indicated that there were five independent risk factors related with the failure (p < 0.05), including course of disease longer than 7 days, lumbar degeneration-related iliac vein compression syndrome (dIVCS), antegrade vein access, balloon-assisted cracking thrombus, and suction time. Logistic regression analysis indicated that course of disease longer than 7 days (OR = 19.642.95%CI:6.776∼56.933), dIVCS (OR = 11.586.95%CI:4.016∼33.427) were high risk factors for modified single-session therapy failed, antegrade vein access (OR = 0.171.95%CI:0.047∼0.614) and balloon-assisted cracking thrombus (OR = 0.157.95%CI:0.045∼0.542) were protective factors for therapy failure (p < 0.05).

Conclusions

Long course of disease and dIVCS are the high risk factors for failure of modified single-session Angiojet rheolytic thrombectomy combined with directed iliac vein stenting, directed filter retrieval in the treatment of iliac vein compression syndrome (IVCS). But, antegrade vein access and balloon-assisted cracking thrombus intraoperatively may improve the success rate of modified single-session treatment.
