Unlike arterial disease, chronic venous disease (CVD) is not life-threatening or limb-threatening, but it can significantly impact patients' lifestyle and quality of life (QoL). This nonsystematic narrative review provides an overview of the latest information on managing CVD, specifically iliofemoral venous stenting for specific patient populations. It also discusses the philosophy of treating CVD, the phases of endovenous iliac stenting, and the use of intravascular ultrasound as the preferred diagnostic tool for iliofemoral venous stent placement.
Unlike arterial disease, chronic venous disease (CVD) is rarely life-threatening or limb-threatening. However, it can impose substantial morbidity on patients by influencing their lifestyle and quality of life (QoL). The aim of this nonsystematic narrative review is to provide an overview of the most recent information on the management of CVD and specifically, iliofemoral venous stenting in the context of personalized considerations for specific patient populations. The philosophy of treating CVD and phases of endovenous iliac stenting are also described in this review. Additionally, the use of intravascular ultrasound is described as the preferred operative diagnostic procedural tool for iliofemoral venous stent placement.
