The aim was to determine the short-term patency and symptomatic relief gained using the Bard Venovo\u2122 and Optimed Sinus Obliquus\u2122 stents in the endovascular treatment of non-thrombotic iliac vein lesions (NIVL) and post-thrombotic venous obstruction (PTO) from two Asian tertiary vascular centres.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Sixty patients (males\u2009=\u200921\/60 (35.0%); median age 67\u2009years (interquartile range 54\u201377)) who underwent IVUS interrogation and ilio-femoral stenting (June 2018\u2013May 2019) in two Asian centres were prospectively followed. Clinical improvement was determined by the revised Venous Clinical Severity Score (rVCSS), pain using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and ulcer healing rate.

Indications for surgery were PTO ( n\u2009=\u200911\/71 (15.5%)) and NIVL ( n\u2009=\u200960\/71 (84.5%)). Twenty-seven of 71 (38.0%) patients had CEAP 6 disease. The median follow-up was 283 (interquartile range 211\u2013370) days. Technical and procedural success was both 100%. Twenty-one of 71 (29.6%) legs had a combination of Venovo\u2122 and Sinus Obliquus\u2122 stents inserted for concurrent ilio-caval and iliac lesions. There were no major post-operative complications. Six-month primary, assisted primary and secondary patency rates were 94.1, 97.1 and 100%, respectively. There were no stent fractures. Mean rVCSS and VAS improved from 12.26 (\u00b13.31) to 4.33 (\u00b12.78) and 6.97 (\u00b11.38) to 2.03 (\u00b11.65), respectively, at three\u2009months (p\u2009&lt;\u20090.01).
