  • Title: Collapse of Viabahn stent-graft secondary to rheolytic thrombectomy: a rare complication of the AngioJet device.
    Author: Tan TW, Watanabe M, Kabutey NK, Vilvendhan R, Kim D.
    Journal: Ann Vasc Surg; 2011 May; 25(4):557.e15-7. PubMed ID: 21549931.
    Abstract:
    There is increased use of percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy for treatment of occluded dialysis access. The AngioJet rheolytic thrombectomy device is one such device available. Reports have shown safety and efficacy of these techniques with relatively few complications. We describe a case report of a collapsed Viabahn endoprosthesis in an arteriovenous fistula during treatment with an AngioJet device.
