In a retrospective study we reviewed 24 patients treated by venous thrombectomy for acute thrombosis of the axillary vein during the past 23 years. We performed 25 venous thrombectomies without any complications. Complete recanalisation could be achieved in all cases of acute thrombosis. Whereas similar clinical results can be achieved by thrombolytic therapy, complete recanalisation by thrombolytic therapy is only achieved in 60% of cases.
