Placement of closed-cell designed venous stents in a mixed cohort of patients with chronic venous outflow obstructions - short-term safety, patency, and clinical outcomes.
CONCLUSIONS: The Vici Venous Stent® placed in the ilio-femoral vein segment in patients with symptomatic VOO revealed no safety issues, had excellent primary patency and substantial symptom improvement. Long-term studies are needed to evaluate the durability of this stenting procedure.
