Prognostic factors influencing venous patency after thrombectomy in patients with May-Thurner syndrome
Residual venous stenosis ≥50% following thrombectomy is an independent predictor of reduced long-term patency in patients with MTS. While stent placement was associated with better outcomes in the univariate analysis, it did not independently predict patency after adjustment, likely due to treatment-related confounding factors. Effective anatomical resolution of stenosis may be more critical than stent deployment. Prospective studies are warranted to clarify the prognostic impact of venographic findings and interventional strategies.
