Core Tip

Core Tip: This is a retrospective study. A total of 65 patients were enrolled to evaluate the clinical outcomes of different treatment methods in patients with filter-related caval thrombosis. We compared the data of patients between the AngioJet rheolytic thrombectomy group (n = 44) and the catheter-directed thrombolysis group (n = 21). The current results showed no difference in thrombus clearance or filter retrieval rate. However, the results showed significant differences in urokinase dosage, peridiameter difference of the thigh, minor bleeding, and length of stay.
