Venous Stenting

Venous stenting is a minimally invasive procedure used to open narrowed or blocked veins and restore normal blood flow. It is often performed to treat chronic venous obstruction, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), or compression syndromes that cause symptoms such as leg swelling, pain, or pelvic discomfort. During the procedure, a small thin tube called a catheter is guided through the vein to the affected area, and a self-expanding metal stent is placed to hold the vein open and improve circulation.

Iliac Vein Stenting: Often used to treat conditions like May-Thurner Syndrome, iliac vein stenting relieves compression in the pelvic veins to reduce leg swelling, discomfort, and risk of deep vein thrombosis.

Renal Vein Stenting: Used in cases such as Nutcracker Syndrome, renal vein stenting helps restore proper blood flow from the kidney and alleviates symptoms like flank pain or hematuria.
