Abstract    Post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) is a major medium-to-long-term complication in patients with lower extremity deep vein thrombosis. Conservative treatment, including compression treatment, pharmacotherapy, and exercise training, has become the cornerstone for the treatment of PTS, but the symptoms of some patients do not improve significantly after conservative treatment and surgical intervention are urgently needed. With the development of interventional equipment and technology, endovascular therapy has become the first choice for moderate and severe PTS patients. However, the understanding of surgical indications, operational technical points, and efficacy evaluation is relatively insufficient in the endovascular therapy of PTS. In order to improve the long-term effect of endovascular therapy in pts, surgeons should strictly consider the operative indications, standardize the intraoperative operation, and strengthen postoperative management. In addition, the research and development of dedicated venous stents that meet the physiological and anatomical conditions of veins are of great significance for improving the therapeutic effect of PTS patients.
