Long-term Outcomes Following Inferior Vena Cava Stent Placement Across the Renal Veins

JVIR

This study examined the impact of IVC stent placement across the renal veins on renal function and renal vein patency. The study cohort consisted of 48 patients who underwent IVC stent placement across the renal veins (RV+ group) and 96 patients who underwent IVC stent placement sparing the renal veins (RV- group). Changes in eGFR (RV+ vs RV-, mL/min/1.73 m2) at 1-7 days (-0.8 vs. -0.7, P = 0.98), 8-30 days (1.9 vs. 0, P = 0.66), 31-180 days (0.3 vs. -2.1, P = 0.55), and beyond 180 days (5.8 vs.
