An inferior venocavagram is performed to identify intraluminal thrombus, the size of the cava,
https://t.me/med1917
duplication anomalies, and the level of the renal veins as demonstrated by the inow defect representing non-contrast-enhanced blood return from the renal veins into the column of the opacied vena cava (Fig.
70.3, black arrows).
e inferior vena caval lter is placed in an infrarenal location (Fig. 70.4). e black arrows demonstrate the
renal inow on the postdeployment cavagram.
Teaching Points
Carbon dioxide can be used as a contrast agent in the setting of iodinated contrast allergies or renal
failure.
Currently accepted indications for IVC Filter placement in patients with documented venous
thromboembolism (VTE) include patients with the following:
Contraindication to anticoagulation or inability to maintain adequate anticoagulation
Documented progression or recurrence of VTE while on anticoagulation
Complications from anticoagulation
Massive pulmonary embolism requiring thrombolysis or surgical thrombectomy
With increased used of retrievable lters, indications for use continue to expand which can include the
following:
Prophylaxis in patients at risk for VTE who may be bedbound for a prolonged period due to trauma or
surgery
Patients with large clot burdens such as iliocaval deep vein thrombosis or thrombus in the inferior vena
cava
e current line of lters can be placed in inferior vena cavae measuring up to 28mm.If a megacava is identied, a Bird’s Nest permanent lter can be placed in cava measuring between 28 and
40mm. Bilateral iliac lters should be placed in cavae measuring greater than 40mm.
IVC lters should be placed just below the renal inows.
Management
With the increased use of retrievable lters, patients should be educated about early retrieval of these lters
once risk of VTE returns to normal.
Internal jugular approach is preferred when possible for ease of catheterizing the le iliac vein to exclude
duplication anomaly, the ability to capture and move unexpected thrombosis caudally to allow for infrarenal lter position, and for patient comfort in recovering in a seated rather than supine position.

Coronal computed tomography (CT) reconstruction shows an inferior vena cava (IVC) lter in the infrarenal
IVC (Fig.71.5). e IVC is tortous, and relative to the axis of the vessel, the lter is mildly tilted. e medial leg of the lter appears to be protruding through the wall of the vessel (arrow).
A tip-deecting wire (Fig. 71.6, arrow) is seen under the hook at the neck of the lter. is was used to free the
lter from its position against the wall of the cava, making the hook accessible for capture. Aer a loop snare failed to snare the hook, an alligator forceps was used (71.6 arrow and 71.7). Once the forceps grasped the hook, the sheath was advanced over the lter which was removed without further diculty (Fig. 71.8).
Teaching Points
Truly temporary lters must be removed and are rarely, if ever, used; almost all lters currently being placed
are retrievable lters approved for permanent implantation, for example, the Gunther Tulip ©, Option ©, and Trapese ©.
e incidence of deep vein thrombosis is increased by the presence of a lter, and the risk increases over time.
Removal of IVC lters, when appropriate, is performed to reduce the sequela of venous incompetence and caval thrombosis.
Early removal increases likelihood of success. Within 3months, over 90% can be successfully removed,
decreasing to under half at 1year.
Filters can be dicult to remove if the hook is embedded in the wall or becomes unformed during the
attempt. In such cases, a tip-deecting wire or balloon displacement can be used to reposition the hook into the lumen of the IVC. Alternatively, a “sling” technique can be used in which a reverse-curve catheter is advanced distal to the lter and a wire advanced out of the catheter (extending cranial to the lter) can be snared, allowing the lter to be pulled into the guiding sheath and removed.
IVC perforation is dened as any part, usually a leg, of the lter extending >3mm beyond the wall of the IVC.
Perforation can result in pain or injury to adjacent structures.
ere are currently no prospective trials comparing ecacy and complications of dierent lter designs.
Management
Prior to removing a lter, a cavogram should be performed to assess for trapped thrombus. When present, clot
that occupies >25% of the volume of the lter precludes removal in most cases.
e most common causes of failed retrieval is endothelization of the legs in the wall of the cava.

Findings
Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) (Figs. 72.6, 72.3, and 72.7) demonstrates complete occlusion
with extensive thrombus extending from the infrarenal IVC lter (Fig. 72.6 arrow) to the popliteal veins bilaterally (Fig.72.7, arrows).
Selective venograms from the right lower extremity (Figs. 72.8 and 72.9) demonstrate lling defects within the
femoral vein (arrows, Fig. 72.8) representing acute clot, with irregularity of the right common iliac vein (white arrows, Fig. 72.9) representing chronic changes extending to a permanent IVC lter (black arrow, Fig. 72.9).
Bilateral lysis catheters (white arrows, Fig. 72.10) extending from just above the IVC lter (black arrow,
Fig. 72.10) to the popliteal veins were le with a 24-hour alteplase infusion at a total rate of 1.0 mg/hr.

Aer 24 hours of alteplase infusion, venogram (Fig. 72.11) shows improved ow through the lter (black

arrow).
Decision was made to stent across the IVC lter (black arrow, Fig. 72.12) with re-creation of the iliac vein
conuence (white arrows, Fig. 72.12).
Aer lysis and stent placement, a venogram (Fig. 72.13) depicts a widely patent right common iliac vein and IVC.
Teaching Points
Unlike iliofemoral deep vein thrombosis (see Case 73), there are no established indications for recanalization
of a chronically occluded IVC.
Prior to intervention, physical examination and imaging are critical to evaluate the extent of clot burden and
to identify involvement of hepatic or renal vein inows, which may aect stent landing sites.
Chronically imbedded lters can be stented open with a high-radial-force, self-expanding stent such as a
Wallstent ©.
Self-expanding stents are used because of their ability to re-expand when an external force is removed.
Balloon expandable stents are prone to crush when confronted with external forces.
Management
Stenting is performed with ACT 250–300 seconds.Aer IVC recanalization and stent placement, anticoagulation is suggested for 2–3months.Follow up with patient at 3, 6, and 12months and annually aer procedure with ultrasound. Repeat
venogram is performed in the setting of increased symptoms or if the ultrasound identies areas of abnormality.
