Zur Implantation von Vena-cava-Filtern liegen nur sehr wenige randomisierte Studien vor, die Datenlage fur eine Indikationsempfehlung ist mangelhaft. Wahrend in den USA in Feldstudien zum Teil sehr hohe Implantationsraten berichtet werden – mit regional auserst unterschiedlicher Verteilung – empfiehlt die deutsche Leitlinie groste Zuruckhaltung.

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 2009
Superior vena cava syndrome is a common complication of malignancy. The epidemiology, presentation, and diagnostic evaluation of patients presenting with the syndrome are reviewed. Management options including chemotherapy and radiation therapy and the role of endovascular stents are discussed along with the evidence for each of the therapeutic options.

Leiomyosarcoma of the Inferior Vena Cava in a Patient With Double Inferior Vena Cava
Annals of Vascular Surgery, 2012Leiomyosarcoma of the inferior vena cava (IVC) is a rare tumor arising from its smooth muscle cells.We report the case of a 38-year-old woman presenting with back pain and weight loss who was diagnosed with a 22-cm leiomyosarcoma of the right IVC and thrombosis of the left IVC.

Left inferior vena cava with regressed right inferior vena cava
Anatomical Science International, 2008A left inferior vena cava was found in the cadaver of an 88-year-old Japanese man during a student dissection course at Kumamoto University School of Medicine. The right common iliac vein ascended obliquely toward the left behind the right common iliac artery and united with the left common iliac vein to form the inferior vena cava in front of the ...

Fulminant pulmonary embolism is one of the major causes of death in the Western World. In most cases, deep leg and pelvic venous thrombosis are the cause. If an anticoagulant/thrombotic therapy is no longer possible or ineffective, a vena cava filter implant may be indicated if an embolism is threatening. Implantation of the filter is a simple and safe

Dual Inferior Vena Cava: Two Inferior Vena Cava Filters
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2007The formation of the venous drainage system of the human body is a complex process involving structures forming and regressing in a predefined order. Interruption of any one of these steps results in the formation of a congenital anomaly. Knowledge of these anomalies can prevent us from potential serious and sometimes fatal complications.

Lung cancer is the most common cause of superior vena cava syndrome (SVCS) and requires timely recognition and management. The syndrome is rarely an oncologic emergency in the absence of tracheal compression and airway compromise. Treatment depends on the etiology of the obstructive process.

Vena cava filters are effective in preventing pulmonary embolism (PE) in patients with deep vein thrombosis or PE who either have contraindications to anticoagulation or have sustained a PE despite adequate anticoagulation. Although vena cava filters are not without complications, clinically significant morbidity and mortality are low.

Interesting inferior vena cava
Clinical Anatomy, 1999This article presents, as diagnostic problems, computed tomographic (CT) images from a patient with unusual cross-sectional anatomy at the thoraco-abdominal region. The introduction and discussion emphasize the solution and explain the underlying clinical condition and resultant radiographic and computed tomographic imaging features.

Inferior vena cava echocardiography
Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, 1982AbstractThe inferior vena cava can be imaged during echocardiography from the subcostal transducer position as an echo‐free space at a depth ranging from 6 to 15 cm from the abdominal wall. The normal inferior vena cava M‐mode echocardiogram has an “a” and “v” pulsation pattern similar to that seen in the jugular venous tracing and exhibits prominent ...
