Core Tip
Core Tip: Acute aortoiliac stent occlusion is a troublesome complication due to the need for open surgery or the risk of distal embolization. After the placement of a large-dimeter sheath in the access site, retrograde application of rheolytic thrombectomy catheter can effectively remove the thrombus. And the conventional mechanical thrombectomy can remove the remnant organized thrombus. During both rheolytic and mechanical thrombectomy, the application of a large-diameter sheath can prevent distal embolization.
