It was reported that stent migration occurred and additional intervention was required.A 14x60x100 vici self-expanding stent was selected for may-thurner treatment procedure in the left common iliac vein.During the procedure, the stent was implanted with no complications.After two minutes of deployment, another angiogram was taken and the stent distal ends did not seat well within may-thurners segment of vein.The stent migrated higher within the venous system and was no longer in the proper location to appease the initial stenosis and compression.The procedure was completed successfully with another 14x60 vici self-expanding stent to extend the previous displaced stent which overlapped distally to the migrated stent.There were no patient complications reported.The patient was asymptotic and fine post procedure.

It was reported that stent migration occurred and additional intervention was required.A 14x60x100 vici self-expanding stent was selected for may-thurner treatment procedure in the left common iliac vein.During the procedure, the stent was implanted with no complications.After two minutes of deployment, another angiogram was taken and the stent distal ends did not seat well within may-thurners segment of vein.The stent migrated higher within the venous system and was no longer in the proper location to appease the initial stenosis and compression.The procedure was completed successfully with another 14x60 vici self-expanding stent to extend the previous displaced stent which overlapped distally to the migrated stent.There were no patient complications reported.The patient was asymptotic and fine post procedure.It was further reported that the patient presented with a compressive may-thurner lesion in the left common iliac vein which measured approximately 45mm in length.The reference vein diameter above the lesion was measured at approximately 13mm in diameter.The lesion was pre-dilated with a 12mm mustang balloon.A 14x60mm vici stent was selected to treat the lesion.The central end of the stent landed approximately 10mm above the stenosis.The distal portion of the stent appeared to be roughly 5mm beyond the initially measured lesion.Post-implant, the stent appeared to be fully expanded and apposed.No post-implant ballooning of the stent occurred.Shortly after implant, an angiogram confirmed migration of the stent from its original location to a position crossing the ivc.The stent position was stable and not a concern for restricting contralateral flow.A second stent was placed to secure the original stent and treat the may-thurner lesion.
