Venous stents are being used with increasing frequency, with a multitude of dedicated venous stents now well established or emerging onto the market. This review explores the multifaceted aspects of venous stenting. We discuss the history of venous stents, indications for their use, the imaging required before, during and after stenting, as well as some technical tips and tricks which we have found to be helpful in our own daily practice with a particular focus on iliofemoral venous stenting. Ultimately, this article seeks to enhance the understanding of venous stenting, offering insights into what we feel are best practices, challenges, and prospects for improved patient outcomes.
