Hybrid operative thrombectomy is noninferior to percutaneous techniques for the treatment of acute iliofemoral deep venous thrombosis

PT and HOT have demonstrated good outcomes in the perioperative and intermediate periods. HOT is noninferior to PT as a technique for early thrombus removal and has the advantages that thrombus resolution is established in one operation and length of stay is significantly decreased. HOT avoids thrombolytic therapy, which may reduce major bleeding events.
