Abstract

Radiotherapy Stent Venous disease adult article case report endovascular stent femoral vein human male melanoma peripheral occlusive artery disease peripheral venous stenosis phlebography radiotherapy stent vein disease vein occlusion vein thrombosis Arterial Occlusive Diseases Femoral Vein Humans Male Melanoma Middle Aged Peripheral Vascular Diseases Radiography, Interventional Radiotherapy Skin Neoplasms Stents
Arterial occlusive disease is a well-known complication of radiation therapy, but venous thrombosis and occlusion after radiotherapy may also occur. We report the use of an endovascular stent to treat a patient who developed peripheral venous stenosis 4 years after radiation therapy for malignant melanoma. © 2003 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
