Figure 7 A percutaneous needle was placed on the skin surface parallel to the femoral vein in order to determine the level at which the most caudal stent must be implanted and still permit access into the stent by the needle. This strategy will permit recanalization of the stent by a needle (arrow) in the event that it is completely occluded in the future.
