Early clinical outcomes for treatment of post-thrombotic syndrome and common iliac vein compression with a hybrid Oblique self-expanding nitinol stent - the TOPOS study.

Conclusions: In patients with PTS and common iliac vein compression, treatment with the hybrid oblique stent with provisional stent extension resulted in high patency rates and improvement in PTS severity and quality of life at 3-month. Two-year results of TOPOS will assess the durability of this treatment. PMID: 32248759 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
