Recanalization techniques of chronic iliofemoral vein occlusions
This video resumes the steps of performing a recanalization and stenting of a post-thrombotic iliofemoral vein oclussion including phlebographic and IVUS assessment.
Key words: Venous stenting, venous recanalization, posthrombotic syndrome, iliofemoral occlusion, deep vein thombosis, IVUS

Choice of antiplatelet therapy around complex revascularisation
A 79-year-old diabetic male patient with no history of coronary disease is referred to you to undergo angioplasty for tissue loss on the tips of the hallux and second toe. He is taking Aspirin 75mg. From preoperative imaging he needs a 20cm SFA occlusion stopping before the adductor hiatus recanalizing as well as multilevel tibial disease which appears to be a combination of short occlusions and stenoses. The dorsal pedal is seen in the foot and is in continuity with the arch. The PT artery appears occluded through it’s whole length.
