Inferior 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...
متن کاملExtravascular Migration of a Fractured Inferior Vena Cava Filter Strut
A 20-year-old man presented with a femur fracture and epidural hemorrhage (EDH) following a fall. One month after fracture surgery, swelling developed in both legs, and he was diagnosed as having a deep-vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. A retrievable inferior vena cava filter (IVCF) was inserted, because EDH is a contraindication to anticoagulants. Four months later, he complained of abdo...

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...
