Inferior Vena Cava Filter Fracture Presenting as Deep Vein Thrombosis

open access: yesClinical Case Reports
Long‐term indwelling inferior vena cava filters can cause device fracture and chronic caval occlusion, leading to deep vein thrombosis. Clinicians should consider filter‐related complications in patients with a history of inferior vena cava filter ...

Inferior Vena Cava Filters [PDF]

open access: yesJACC: Cardiovascular Interventions, 2013
Venous thromboembolism is common. Most pulmonary emboli arise as thromboses in the deep veins of the lower extremities and may result in serious complications. Inferior vena cava filters (IVCF) are intended to prevent the passage of deep vein thrombosis to the pulmonary arteries.

Vena cava filters and inferior vena cava thrombosis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Vascular Surgery, 2007
Retrievable vena cava filters (R-VCF) are a recent addition to the therapeutic armamentarium for the prevention of pulmonary embolism. However, unlike permanent vena cava filters (P-VCF), outcomes data are limited regarding complication rates.This was a retrospective comparative analysis of consecutive patients undergoing placement of R-VCF vs P-VCF at

Interleukin‐18 signaling promotes activation of hepatic stellate cells in mouse liver fibrosis

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Interleukin‐18 signaling promotes activation of hepatic stellate cells in mouse liver fibrosis. Abstract Background and Aims Nucleotide‐binding oligomerization domain‐like receptor‐family pyrin domain‐containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation has been shown to result in liver fibrosis.

Emergence of highly profibrotic and proinflammatory Lrat+Fbln2+ HSC subpopulation in alcoholic hepatitis

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Lrat+ quiescent hepatic stellate cells (qHSC) give rise to Lrat+Fbln2+ activated HSC (aHSC) in alcohol‐associated hepatitis and this subpopulation is highly profibrotic, inflammatory, and immunoregulatory based on their single cell transcriptomic profile. Abstract Background and Aims Relative roles of HSCs and portal fibroblasts in alcoholic hepatitis (

Inferior vena cava filter fracture and migration to the pulmonary artery

open access: yesRadiology Case Reports, 2021
Inferior vena cava (IVC) filters provide a safe and effective method for protecting against pulmonary embolisms in patients for whom standard anticoagulation therapy for acute deep vein thrombosis is contraindicated.
