Abstract

Among patients with proximal iliofemoral deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and an elevated Villalta score, anticoagulation therapy alone may not be a sufficient management strategy in select cases. In this article, we report a case of severe bilateral iliofemoral DVT that resisted the standard treatment for DVT, requiring catheter-directed thrombolysis and subsequent mechanical thrombectomy.
