Percutaneous retrieval of a Mobin-Uddin inferior vena cava filter 42 years following implantation

open access: yesDiagnostic and Interventional Radiology, 2021
Inferior vena cava filters (IVCFs) are an established alternative for protection from thromboembolism when anticoagulation fails or is contraindicated.

The use of intravascular ultrasound imaging to improve use of inferior vena cava filters in a high-risk bariatric population [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
ObjectivePulmonary embolism is the leading cause of death after gastric bypass procedures for obesity, approximating 0.5% to 4%. All bariatric patients, but especially the super-obese, which have a body mass index (BMI) >50 kg/m2, are at significant risk

Sentry bioconvertible inferior vena cava filter: Study of stages of incorporation in an experimental ovine model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The Sentry inferior vena cava (IVC) filter is designed to provide temporary protection from pulmonary embolism (PE) and then bioconvert to become incorporated in the vessel wall, leaving a patent IVC lumen. Objective.

Transhepatic inferior vena cava filter retrieval due to chronic occlusion of jugular and subclavian veins

open access: yesRadiology Case Reports, 2019
Retrieval of inferior vena cava filters is routinely performed via an internal jugular venous access. We present a case of a 55-year-old woman with myeloproliferative disorder, complicated by venous thrombosis.

Tomographic anatomy of the vena cava and renal veins: features relevant to vena cava filter placement

open access: yesJornal Vascular Brasileiro, 2015
BACKGROUND: There is a growing demand for invasive procedures involving the inferior vena cava, in particular for placement of vena cava filters. It is not always easy to identify the more distal renal vein with cavography, for safe release of filters ...

Cancer and thrombosis: Managing the risks and approaches to thromboprophylaxis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Patients with cancer are at increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) compared with patients without cancer. This results from both the prothrombotic effects of the cancer itself and iatrogenic factors, such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy, indwelling

Development and evaluation of a new biodegradable vena cava filter in a canine model

open access: yesAsian Journal of Surgery, 2017
Purpose: Preliminary testing of a new biodegradable inferior vena cava filter in a canine model. Methods: The biodegradable filter consisted of two parts, a filter cone and a stent. The filter cone was constructed of six polyglycolic acid polymer strands

Vena Cava Filters [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Vascular and Interventional Radiology, 2005
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 ...
