Penetration of an inferior vena cava filter into the aorta.
Transvenous placement of inferior vena cava (IVC) filters is commonly performed in selected patients with deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. However, filter placement is sometimes associated with serious complications. A common complication is asymptomatic perforation of the IVC and penetration of adjacent organs by the filter. Here, we report a case of an 83-year-old man whose prop...

متن کاملInferior vena cava filter thrombosis
Patients with inferior vena cava (IVC) filters - particularly permanent filters - are at increased risk for recurrent deep venous thrombosis (DVT). Judicious use of IVC filters, as well as the prompt retrieval of temporary IVC filters, substantially reduces the risk of IVC thrombosis.
متن کاملThe Celect Platinum Inferior Vena Cava Filter
T he concept of surgical caval interruption was suggested as early as 1868 by Trousseau, who proposed creating a barrier in the inferior vena cava (IVC) to prevent venous emboli from the legs from reaching the lungs.1 In 1967, nearly 100 years later, the first endovenous filter was implanted.2 Although the basic concept of caval filtration has largely remained the same over the past century, ad...
متن کاملInferior vena cava filter migration to the right ventricle.
Inferior vena cava (IVC) filter placement is recommended for acute proximal deep venous thrombosis if anticoagulation is contraindicated. A 52-year-old man presented with weakness, dyspnea, syncope, and renal failure 8 months after IVC filter placement. Imaging revealed migration of the IVC filter to the right ventricle. Endovascular retrieval was not feasible, thus surgical extraction and tric...
