Taunting the crowd while the play is going on — with your back to the field — and then tipping the ball to the wide receiver to lose on a Hail Mary is a hell of a film review.

Designed for caval and extremity deep vein use, dedicated venous stents (Venovo and Abre) aim to provide a balance of flexibility, radial force, and crush resistance and may prove useful for splanchnic vein reconstructions.

In honor of #CIRSE2024, a variety of conventional and sharp recanalization techniques may fail to restore patency to chronically occluded venous stents. Direct percutaneous puncture may serve as an adjunctive technique for success.
