Abstract

As the residence time increases, filter retrieval becomes more difficult. We present a case of Celect IVC filter (Cook Medical Inc, American) with dwell time of 1,843 days, treated successfully with endovascular filter removal. The use of IVCF should strictly comply with the indications and it is vital to retrieving filters during the retrieval time window, which could minimize the risk of IVCFs related complications.
