What Is Stenting?

Venous Stenting is a minimally invasive procedure performed by interventional radiologists to open blocked or narrowed veins and restore healthy blood flow.
This treatment is often used for patients with chronic venous obstruction or deep vein narrowing, conditions that can cause leg swelling, pain, and fatigue.

At Advanced Vascular & Vein, our board-certified specialists use image-guided precision techniques to place stents within the affected veins, helping patients experience lasting relief and improved circulation without surgery or prolonged recovery.

Preparation and Access

Under local anesthesia, a small catheter is inserted into the affected vein, typically through the groin.

Imaging & Diagnosis

Using real-time imaging (venography or intravascular ultrasound), your interventional radiologist locates the blockage or compression.

Balloon Angioplasty

A balloon is used to gently widen the narrowed vein.

Stent Placement

A stent, a tiny mesh tube is then placed inside the vein to keep it open permanently.

Restored Circulation

The catheter is removed, and blood flow is immediately improved.

Is Venous Stenting Right for You?

You may be a candidate for venous stenting if you experience chronic venous symptoms due to vein narrowing, scarring, or compression.

Common signs and conditions include:

Persistent leg swelling (especially one-sided)
Leg pain, heaviness, or fatigue
Skin discoloration or thickening near the ankles
Non-healing wounds or venous ulcers
History of deep vein thrombosis (DVT)
May-Thurner Syndrome or a compression of the left iliac vein by the right iliac artery
Pelvic congestion or chronic pelvic pain (in women)

If your symptoms persist despite compression therapy or conservative treatment, venous stenting may offer long-term relief by addressing the root cause: restricted venous blood flow.
