Complications of Deep Venous Stenting and Their Management
摘要
Complications after iliofemoral and inferior vena cava stenting are rare, and most can be managed effectively without significant long-term consequences for the patient. Nevertheless, the procedure is not without risk, and clinicians considering starting a venous practice must be aware of the range of complications that can occur, which range from minor access site bleeds to fatal arrhythmia from stent migration to the heart. Most complications can be avoided with appropriate patient selection, stent sizing, and careful access and deployment techniques.
