Braided or laser-cut self-expanding nitinol stents for the common femoral vein in patients with the post-thrombotic syndrome.

Journal of Vascular Surgery: Venous and Lymphatic Disorders, 2020
BACKGROUND Chronic obstruction of the common femoral vein in patients with the post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) after iliofemoral or iliocaval deep vein thrombosis remains a challenge for endovascular treatment. Patency rates and clinical outcomes of laser-

Intravascular Fibrolipoma of the Femoral Vein

Annals of Vascular Surgery, 2017
Lipoma of the lower leg vein is rare, and the histopathological variant, fibrolipoma, is even rarer. Here, we report an intravascular fibrolipoma located at the junction of the deep femoral vein and the femoral vein in a 50-year-old male patient. Tumor resection and venous reconstruction with a prosthetic graft were performed.

Femoral vein pseudoaneurysm: uncommon complication of femoral vein puncture.

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, 1998
Complications occurring after vascular catheterization include infection, hematoma, arterial pseudoaneurysm, thrombosis, arteriovenous fistula, and nerve injury.1 Venous pseudoaneurysms are uncommon. We present a case in which color flow duplex sonography provided a noninvasive method for diagnosing this vascular abnormality.

The perils of femoral vein catheterization

British Journal of Hospital Medicine, 2009
A 69-year-old patient was admitted to the intensive care unit for haemofiltration following an overdose of lithium carbonate. A venous haemofiltration catheter was passed 4 cm below the inguinal ligament, 1 cm medial to the femoral artery pulsation, into the femoral vein.

Great Mediastinal Vein Reconstruction Using Autologous Superficial Femoral Vein Superficial Femoral Vein Graft

Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 2008
Great mediastinal veins may be reconstructed using autologous, synthetic, or allograft conduits. Autologous conduits have been found superior to other conduit options. The superficial femoral vein (SFV) offers excellent early patency, minimal lower limb morbidity, and ease of harvest without accessory suture lines.

Leiomyosarcoma of Iliac and Femoral Veins

Archives of Surgery, 1965
ONLY 26 CASES of primary malignant tumors of veins have thus far been reported. Twenty-one of these were leiomyosarcomas, only seven of which originated outside the inferior vena cava: one in the left colic vein, 3,6 three in the femoral vein, 4,5,7 two in the internal jugular vein, 1,7 and one in the long saphenous vein.

Fate of the tributaries of sapheno femoral junction following endovenous thermal ablation of incompetent axial vein – A review article

Phlebology, 2018
Sapheno femoral junctional tributaries are usually left untreated at the time of endovenous ablation of axial vein. The long-term clinical significance of these untreated tributaries remains elusive and there is very little research done into this area ...

Femoral vein cannulation: A review

The Journal of Emergency Medicine, 1985
The femoral vein is an excellent potential venous access site. The technique of cannulation is described and its applications and complications are reviewed. More extensive future use of this technique is necessary to determine its proper role in emergency medicine.
