Abstract
Limb ischemia and pulmonary embolism are devastating complications of deep vein thrombosis. Catheter directed thrombolysis (CDT) and pharmacomechanical thrombolysis are effective treatments, however thrombolytics in these procedures increase the risk of bleeding. Moreover, they lengthen hospital stays and have many contraindications. The Inari ClotTriever is an innovative device for percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy. We present a case of an ileofemoral DVT with extension to the inferior vena cava removed without thrombolytics.
