“…The most common adverse events were the poor axial tilt and the displacement of the IVCF, resulting in the difficulty in IVCF retrieval. Hemodynamics change of the IVC due to ventilation and cardiopulmonary resuscitation has been considered as the main factors contributing to filter dislocation [ 10 , 11 ]. Previous studies have reported multiple cases of cardiac tamponade caused by filter dislocation [ 9 , 12 – 16 ] with serious consequences.…”

Background Dislocation of inferior vena cava filter (IVCF) is a rare complication with potential IVC perforation and other life-threatening risks requiring early diagnosis and in-time retrieval. Most of dislocation IVCF in the past have been shelved or removed by open surgery. It is very difficult to retrieve the filters by interventional technology. Case presentation Here we report a 49-year-old man suffering from dislocation of IVCF implanted due to deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in the right femoral vein. Successful retrieval of the IVCF using double sheaths docking technique was done soon after confirmation of the dislocation. Importance of monitoring and early detection of dislocation of IVCF should be emphasized to avoid further complications. Conclusions The double vascular sheaths docking technique can be considered as a preferential option in difficult operative situation.

“…Reports of filter migration are largely limited to symptomatic case reports in the literature, and seem to be related to individual filter designs and caval size. [27][28][29] The incidence of asymptomatic device migration or strut embolization is unknown. Although strut perforation rates are reportedly as high as 95%, 30 these perforations are estimated to be symptomatic in approximately 8% of cases.…”

Inferior vena cava (IVC) filtration for thromboembolic protection is not without risks, and there are important differences among commercially available IVC filters. While retrievable filters are approved for permanent implantation, they may be associated with higher device-related complications in the long term when compared with permanent filters. Prospective patient selection in determining which patients might be better served by permanent or retrievable filter devices is central to resource optimization, in addition to improved clinical follow-up and a concerted effort to retrieve filters when no longer needed. This article highlights the differences between permanent and retrievable devices, describes the interplay between these differences and the clinical indications for IVC filtration, advises against a ?one-filter-for-all? approach to mechanical thromboembolic prophylaxis, and discusses strategies for optimizing personalized device selection.
