“…Some patients who require long-term filter implantation but do not have the necessary health conditions for a filter retrieval surgery will still use this type of filter, but this filter is currently less commonly used clinically. Representative products of this type of filter are the Mobin-Uddin umbrella filter ( Dupont, 1976 ), Greenfield filter ( Kanter and Moser, 1988 ), Bird’s Nest filter ( Roehm, 1984 ), Vena Tech LGM filter ( Crochet et al, 1993 ), Vena Tech LP filter ( Ahmed et al, 2016 ), Simon nitinol filter ( Poletti et al, 1998 ) and TrapEase filter ( Liu et al, 2005 ).…”

Deep vein thrombosis is a common clinical peripheral vascular disease that occurs frequently in orthopaedic patients and may lead to pulmonary embolism (PE) if the thrombus is dislodged. pulmonary embolism can be prevented by placing an inferior vena cava filter (IVCF) to intercept the dislodged thrombus. Thus, IVCFs play an important role in orthopaedics. However, the occurrence of complications after inferior vena cava filter placement, particularly recurrent thromboembolism, makes it necessary to carefully assess the risk-benefit of filter placement. There is no accepted statement as to whether IVCF should be placed in orthopaedic patients. Based on the problems currently displayed in the use of IVCFs, an ideal IVCF is proposed that does not affect the vessel wall and haemodynamics and intercepts thrombi well. The biodegradable filters that currently exist come close to the description of an ideal filter that can reduce the occurrence of various complications. Currently available biodegradable IVCFs consist of various organic polymeric materials. Biodegradable metals have shown good performance in making biodegradable IVCFs. However, among the available experimental studies on degradable filters, there are no experimental studies on filters made of degradable metals. This article reviews the use of IVCFs in orthopaedics, the current status of filters and the progress of research into biodegradable vena cava filters and suggests possible future developments based on the published literature by an electronic search of PubMed and Medline databases for articles related to IVCFs searchable by October 2022 and a manual search for citations to relevant studies.

“…These filters are conically shaped and made from Phynox, a non-ferromagnetic cobalt-chromium-nickel alloy with MRI compatibility [26]. VenaTech LP filters have 8 legs that are arranged in a conical fashion and fuse distally to form 4 outer side rails (Figure 9) [28].…”

Inferior Vena Cava Filter Evaluation and Management for the Diagnostic Radiologist: A Comprehensive Review Including Inferior Vena Cava Filter-Related Complications and PRESERVE Trial Filters

Inferior vena cava filters are commonly encountered devices on diagnostic imaging that were highlighted in a 2010 Food and Drug Administration safety advisory regarding their complications from long-term implantation. The Predicting the Safety and Effectiveness of Inferior Vena Cava Filters (PRESERVE) trial is an ongoing after-market study investigating the safety and utility of commonly utilized filters in practice today. While most of these filters are safe, prompt recognition and management of any filter-associated complication is imperative to prevent or reduce the morbidity and mortality associated with them. This review is aimed at discussing the appropriate utilization and placement of inferior vena cava filters in addition to the recognition of filter-associated complications on cross-sectional imaging. An overview of the PRESRVE trial filters is also provided to understand each filter's propensity for specific complications.

“…The 12F sheath was advanced over the snare to the filter base, the hook of the filter snared, and the legs of the filter collapsed subsequently. By applying traction to the filter, the filter was ensheathed and removed in its entirety 4 . Subsequently, a 5F angled catheter and EnSnare was advanced into the right renal vein and the legs were collapsed, captured and retracted cephalad, followed by complete ensheathment and removal (Fig 4).…”

Inferior vena cava filters are placed to prevent life-threatening pulmonary embolism in a selected group of patients. Significant complications are known to occur with prolonged dwell times, and rarely during initial placement. In this report, we describe two cases of inadvertent noncaval inferior vena cava filter placements, specifically in the azygous vein and right renal vein, and the complex methods used to retrieve them, which exemplify the critical importance of routine and careful placement techniques.
