| dc.description.abstract | Introduction: Iliofemoral deep vein thrombosis (IFDVT) and subsequent pulmonary embolism (PE) are an crucial cause of mortality in cancer patients. There is a lack of evidence on the results of mechanical thrombectomy and thromboaspiration (MTT) procedures performed on cancer patients. The aim of this research was to assess safety, efficacy, and clinical outcomes following MTT for cancer-related IFDVT patients. Methods: From July 2020 and April 2022, a total of 14 active cancer patients with symptomatic acute IFDVT were managed with MTT with Mantis device. Primary outcomes included overall survival, venous patency, major bleeding and minor bleeding. Secondary outcomes included duration in intensive care unit and hospital stay, complications, bleeding events, reocclusion and reintervention rates. Results: In twelve patients (85.7%), a significant early clinical improvement was found. Median intensive care unit (ICU) stay was 1 (range, 1-4) days, while the median hospital stay was 4 (range, 3-10) days. Recurrence of IFDVT was observed in 14.3% of cases (n = 2) in the study group. No re-intervention was performed in these patients. The overall survival for the study cohort was 85.7% at 6 months, and 71.4% at 12 months. Venous patency rate at 12-month follow-up control was 64.3%. There was a significant decrease in Villalta scores following the procedures (P < 0.0001). The overall procedural complication rate was 28.6%. Conclusion: In cancer patients, MTT promises to be a reliable and successful treatment for IFDVT considering the dramatic early symptomatic improvement, low reocclusion rates, acceptable procedure-related major complications, satisfactory patency rates, and improved patient quality of life. | |
