Endovenous bypass is an option in symptomatic patients with unsalvageable iliac vein stents [PDF]
Stent occlusion after stenting for chronic iliofemoral venous disease has an incidence of around 3% to 12% in the literature. The reasons for such occlusion vary, with patient and stent-related factors playing a role.

Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension Animal Models and Venous Sinus Stenting: Status of Disease and Device-Focused Evidence [PDF]
Background/Objectives: Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) often features dural venous sinus stenosis; venous sinus stenting (VSS) improves venous outflow and intracranial pressure, but most stents are off-label, and few are engineered for ...

Use of Wallstent device as an embolic protection device during stenting of aortic thrombus
Blue toe syndrome can occur due to distal embolization from proximal lesions such as an aortic thrombus. We describe the case of a patient who presented with chronic limb threatening ischemia due to a flow-limiting infrarenal aortic thrombus, with ...

Management of occluded biliary Wallstents [PDF]
Background—Wallstents (Schneider Stent, Inc., USA) used for the palliation of malignant biliary strictures, although associated with prolonged patency, can occlude. There is no consensus regarding the optimal management of Wallstent occlusion.Aims—To evaluate the efficacy of different endoscopic methods for managing biliary Wallstent occlusion.Methods ...

Management of iatrogenic inferior vena cava perforation with composite Wallstent–Z-stent technique
Inferior vena cava rupture is uncommon but can occur as a result of trauma or catheterization and during venous interventions. We have described two cases of iatrogenic inferior vena cava perforation, with their successful management with bare metal ...

A unique complication of double barrel Wallstent technique in iliac-caval stenting
The “double barrel” technique has been a popular option in reconstituting the iliac-caval confluence in bilateral stenting. It has been mostly used with the Wallstent (Boston Scientific, Marlborough, Mass). The technique, although generally trouble-free,

Successful Wallstent exclusion of iliofemoral venous aneurysms—a new treatment paradigm
Treatment of venous aneurysms involving the iliac and femoral veins has generally been an open surgical approach, with a few case reports noting use of an endovascular approach.

Delayed carotid wallstent shortening
Carotid angioplasty and stenting (CAS) has been demonstrated to be safe and an acceptable alternative to surgery. Stent malpositioning can occur during the maneuvers of delivering; technical errors can lead to proximal or distal slipping of the stent that needs the placement of additional pieces.We describe the case of a postoperative dislocation of a ...
