A review of the incidence, outcome, and management of venous stent migration

The findings from our literature review suggest that the risk of migration is rare but might be underreported. Most of reported cases had occurred with shorter and smaller diameter stents. The paucity of reported data and the short-term follow-up provided suggest that more formal data collection would provide a truer reflection of the incidence. However, clear strategies to avoid migration should be followed to prevent this complication from occurring.
