What is the expert consensus on the management of primary subclavian-axillary vein thrombosis?
Expert consensus supports early clot removal and catheter-directed thrombolysis for primary subclavian-axillary vein thrombosis, though optimal management of residual stenoses remains debated.
Robert B. Rutherford (1996) studied Primary subclavian-axillary vein thrombosis (n=25). Survey on management options was evaluated on Consensus on management options. A survey of 25 vascular surgeons on managing primary subclavian-axillary vein thrombosis found consensus for early clot removal, while 66% favored jugular vein turndown for residual occlusion.
