Residual popliteal vein thrombosis after endovascular treatment of mixed-type lower extremity deep vein thrombosis is relevant to post-thrombotic syndrome.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Patients with mixed-type lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT) have a higher incidence of post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) after endovascular treatment (EVT). This study aimed to identify risk factors associated with PTS in these patients after EVT.

Methods

This retrospective study included patients diagnosed with acute mixed-type lower extremity DVT who underwent EVT between January 2020 and December 2022. Patient assessments were conducted using ultrasound examination and the Villalta scale. Baseline characteristics, management details, and follow-up findings were compared between patients who developed PTS and those who did not at 6 months after EVT. Cox regression and nomogram analyses were performed to identify risk factors associated with the development o
