Under fluoroscopic guidance, IVC filters are placed percutaneously via the jugular or femoral vein. Current guidelines recommend use in patients with known venous thromboembolism who have an absolute contraindication to anticoagulant therapy (e.g., patients with hemorrhagic stroke or ...

Inferior Vena Cava Filters [PDF]
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) remains a common disease with significant clinical impact upon our patients. Diagnostic challenges occur because of the nonspecific nature of the presenting symptoms. The advent of multidetector computed tomography, methods to stratify patients into VTE risks (low, intermediate, high) along with serological assays (D-dimers)

Considerable progress has been made in the last decade in understanding the natural history of “treated” venous thromboembolism (VTE). VTE occurs at a rate of 1/1000 in the general population1 and significantly increases with age, especially after age 60, with rates as high as 1/100.2 Duplex ultrasonography has largely replaced venography as the ...
