AbstractDeep vein thrombosis (DVT) is associated with a high cost burden for health care systems because of secondary cost intensive complications like pulmonary embolism and especially the post thrombotic syndrome (PTS). Current standard therapy of anticoagulation for DVT therapy has not changed through the years leaving patients especially with iliofemoral vein thrombus on a high-risk situation for developing PTS. For patients with chronic venous outflow obstruction of the iliac vein system dedicated venous stents and recanalization techniques are today available.Thieme. All rights reserved.
