Brief Summary

* Iliofemoral DVTs (IF DVTs) are vascular disorders associated with high morbidity and mortality, which can be complicated by long-term post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS). * Pharmaco mechanical thrombolysis (PMT) is an innovative endovascular technique involving in situ fibrinolysis of the thrombus in the acute phase of thrombosis, followed by mechanical extraction by fragmenting the thrombus. * The American ATTRACT study showed that management by catheter-directed thrombolysis and/or PMT in the acute phase is safe and effective at 2 years in a subgroup of DVTif compared with anticoagulation (18% moderate or severe SPT with thrombolysis vs. 28% without thrombolysis). * PMT-DVT will be the first study to assess the medium (30 months) and long-term (60 months) efficacy of PMT in the French context, using data from the French National Health Data System.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria: * Patients who agreed to participate in the study and gave oral consent. * Patient affiliated to a social security scheme * Iliac and/or common femoral venous thrombosis * Recent thrombosis less than or equal to 14 days since qualifying imaging or less than or equal to 21 days since onset of symptoms And at least 1 of the following criteria: * Visual analog scale greater than or equal to 5 and/or * Venous claudication and/or * Increase in thigh circumference greater than or equal to 5% compared with contralateral thigh. Exclusion Criteria: * Patients with superficial femoral or popliteal venous thrombosis without involvement of the common femoral or iliac veins. * Patients with isolated thrombosis of the inferior vena cava, without extension to the iliac veins. * Thrombosis of inferior vena cava proximal to the renal veins. * Minors, pregnant women, adults under guardianship. * Chronic renal failure with creatinine clearance below 30ml/min according to Cockroft. * Ischaemic phlebitis: proximal venous thrombosis associated with limb ischemia and impaired arterial flow.
