Percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy of lower extremity deep vein thrombosis in a pediatric patient

Deep vein thrombosis is relatively rare in the pediatric setting, though it carries significant risk for pulmonary embolism and post-thrombotic syndrome. We report a case of a 10-year-old girl diagnosed with pulmonary embolism and right iliofemoral vein deep vein thrombosis with concomitant granulom...

We report a case of a 10-year-old girl diagnosed with pulmonary embolism and right iliofemoral vein deep vein thrombosis with concomitant granulomatosis with polyangiitis (formerly Wegener's granulomatosis) and acute glomerulonephritis. Owing to lifestyle-limiting venous claudication, we performed percutaneous, mechanical thrombectomy using the ClotTriever system with successful removal of likely both acute and chronic thrombus. After the procedure, the patient had near complete resolution of her venous claudication symptoms.http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2468428720301532Deep venous thrombosisDVTVenous claudicationMechanical thrombectomyMechanical thrombolysisPediatric DVT
