Management strategies and clinical outcomes in patients with inferior vena cava thrombosis: Data from GARFIELD‐VTE
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Inferior vena cava (IVC) thrombosis is a rare form of venous thromboembolism (VTE). The optimal treatment strategies and outcomes are unclear in patients with this presentation.
OBJECTIVE: We aimed to compare baseline characteristics, treatment patterns and 24-month outcomes in IVC thrombosis patients (n = 100) with lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (LEDVT) patients (n = 7629).
