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 کاملTotal laparoscopic retrieval of inferior vena cava filter
While there is some local variability in the use of inferior vena cava filters and there has been some evolution in the indications for filter placement over time, inferior vena cava filters remain a standard option for pulmonary embolism prophylaxis. Indications are clear in certain subpopulations of patients, particularly those with deep venous thrombosis and absolute contraindications to ant...
متن کاملBidirectional Pull-Back Technique for Retrieval of Strut-Embedded Cylinder-Shaped Filters in Inferior Vena Cava
BACKGROUND IVC filters have been widely accepted as an effective method to prevent pulmonary embolism (PE) in patients with deep venous thrombosis (DVT). However, the placement of IVC filters is associated with significant complications and filter retrieval can be challenging when the filter struts are embedded into the caval wall. MATERIAL AND METHODS Over 26 months, we reviewed the safety and...
متن کاملSuccessful cases of difficult inferior vena cava filter retrieval with the use of biopsy forceps: Biopsy forceps technique
OBJECTIVES For treatment and prevention of deep vein thrombosis(DVT) and pulmonary embolism(PE), retrievable inferior vena cava(IVC) filters have commonly been used as an effective bridge to anticoagulation. However, we experienced unexpected difficulty in endovascular retrieval of some IVC filters. Most problems were due to endovascular treatment devices issues, filter intimal migration, filte...
