Abstract

Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome (KTS) is a congenital mixed mesenchymal malformation syndrome that includes varicose veins, capillary and venous malformations, lymphatic abnormalities and hypertrophy of various connective tissue elements. The purpose of this study was to describe clinical characteristics and outcomes in a subset of patients with KTS in whom venous interventions, including iliofemoral venous stenting, were performed after the failure of conservative therapy.
