Clinical outcomes of inferior vena cava filter in complicated pulmonary embolism
Background: Previous observational studies suggest that inferior vena cava filter placement in pulmonary embolism patients complicated with congestive heart failure, mechanical ventilation, and shock may have a mortality benefit. We sought to analyze the

Numerical and experimental study of the fluid flow through a medical device [PDF]
The purpose of this paper is to verify a commercial software based fluid–structure interaction scheme for the inferior vena cava. Vena cava deep thrombosis (TVP) is a potentially deathly disease consequent to pulmonary thromboembolism (TEP).

Case report: Cement entrapped in the inferior vena cava filter after pedicle screw augmentation
BackgroundCement leakage into the inferior vena cava (IVC) is one of the most common complications associated with cement vertebroplasty, and can lead to potentially life-threatening complications such as pulmonary cement embolism (PCE).

The Clinical Rationale for the Sentry Bioconvertible Inferior Vena Cava Filter for the Prevention of Pulmonary Embolism [PDF]
The Sentry inferior vena cava (IVC) filter is designed to provide temporary protection against pulmonary embolism (PE) during transient high-risk periods and then to bioconvert after 60 days after implantation.

Left-sided inferior vena cava (IVC) is the second most common anatomical anomaly of the IVC. We report a drainage pattern of the left IVC into a left duplicated superior vena cava (SVC) diagnosed during IVC filter placement consultation.

Symptomatic duodenal perforation by a Bird's Nest vena cava filter
This case describes a patient with a permanent Bird's Nest inferior vena cava filter in the setting of spinal cord injury and paraplegia who presented with epigastric pain resulting from duodenal perforation of his filter.

Inferior Vena Cava Filter Insertion [PDF]
Inferior vena cava filtration is a common albeit controversial practice. Filter insertion varies widely by hospital. In my practice, nearly all patients with deep venous thrombosis or pulmonary embolism who are unable to undergo anticoagulation receive an inferior vena cava filter.

Early occlusion control of the intrapericardial inferior vena cava under femoral–femoral extracorporeal circulation using a technique to prevent pulmonary embolism during nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma with tumor thrombus: two case reports [PDF]
Background: Renal cell carcinoma with tumor thrombus extension into the inferior vena cava occurs in approximately 5% of cases. Despite such situations, an aggressive surgical approach is recommended.
