Abstract
Long-term complications from deep vein thrombosis, such as post- thrombotic syndrome and chronic venous insufficiency, can result in significant morbidity for the affected patient. Although anticoagulation has been the conventional method of treatment, the benefit of thrombus burden removal cannot be underestimated. The present case report describes the successful treatment of extensive iliocaval and distal thrombosis with suprarenal inferior vena cava stricture using catheter-directed thrombolysis, thrombectomy and angioplasty.
