Abstract
Mechanical thrombectomy is of growing importance for the treatment of thrombus. Although there are numerous reports about dialysis fistulae and arterial thrombosis, venous applications are currently not well known.

This report deals with the indication and technique of venous mechanical thrombectomy and discusses the possible applications
