Background: Iliofemoral deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is associated with severe post-thrombotic morbidity when treated
with anticoagulation alone. Catheter- directed thrombolysis (CDT) allows early removal of thrombus and reduces valvular
reflux and Post-thrombotic Syndrome (PTS).
Patients and methods: This prospective randomized multi-center controlled two- arm blind study was conducted in 6
centers on 252 patients with iliofemoral DVT. Patients were randomly allocated by using simple random allocation cards
method into two groups; Group (A): CDT followed by oral anticoagulation (N=126 (50%)), Group (B): Standard DVT
therapy (N=126 (50%)). Follow-up was for 24 months.
Results: Patients of group (A) significantly complained less pain at 10 & 30 days (P-Value: 0.02 & 0.04 respectively). Also
there was significant decrease in leg circumference in group (A) at 10 & 30 days (P-Value: 0.001 & 0.03 respectively).
Patency of iliac vein segment was significantly higher in group (A) during the 24 months follow up (P-Value
