Eslam Youssef: Rapid Revascularization for Iliofemoral DVT
Eslam Youssef, Vascular Surgeon at Aster Hospitals UAE, shared on LinkedIn:
”Rapid Revascularization for Iliofemoral DVT
Acute extensive iliofemoral DVT demands a definitive solution.
The Case: Complete occlusion of the right iliac and femoral veins.
The Procedure:
1. Transpopliteal Access for direct control.
2. Mechanical Thrombectomy using the Penumbra 16 catheter for rapid clot aspiration.
3. Adjunctive Balloon Angioplasty to address underlying venous stenoses and ensure a durable result.
The Outcome: Immediate restoration of flow, resolution of symptoms, and a significant reduction in the risk of Post-Thrombotic Syndrome.
A powerful, minimally invasive approach that changes the patient’s trajectory.”
