Ans: #IVUS of course This is femoral vein w duplicity (meaning it's duplicated but also tried to trick me) Shown nicely w #IVUS Rewire and good to go. Rest of iliacs cleaned up nicely! @SIRspecialists @SIR_ECS @VascularSVS @kush_r_desai @TheVeinBoss @lahinchman
Pt w acute iliofem DVT. Why won't the femoral vein clot clear after multiple thrombectomy passes 🤔 ?? Too chronic? Spasm?? Trainees, how would you sort this out? (Ans to follow) @SIRspecialists @SIR_ECS @VascularSVS @kush_r_desai @TheVeinBoss @lahinchman
