Trans-jugular AngioJet rheolytic thrombectomy for acute deep vein thrombosis: Alternative to overcome the limitation of patient's position.

CONCLUSION: In patients who are unable to assume a prone position, a transjugular retrograde approach with AngioJet RT just after transjugular placement of IVCF to treat acute lower extremity DVT was a time-saving and easy alternative. During the procedure, attention to the guiding catheter position and AngioJet device movement was required to avoid affecting the IVCF. PMID: 32972290 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
