Insertion of a retrievable inferior vena cava filter in patients randomized to the filter group. Filter retrieval was planned at 3 months from placement. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Primary efficacy outcome was symptomatic recurrent pulmonary embolism at 3 months.

Multiple complications associated with the use of IVC filters were described in the reviewed literature or were reported to the MAUDE database; most of these were associated with long-term use (>30 days).

We reviewed our experience with the different types of inferior vena cava (IVC) filters used over 4 years for the incidence of complications and correlated this with the type of filter used. This is a retrospective study involving chart reviews of all the patients who received IVC filters placed between January 2002 and January 2006.

Including only patients with cancer and carcinomas, both metastatic and localized, we recorded the indications for inferior vena cava filter, postfilter practices including anticoagulation use, filter retrieval rates, and filter-related complications.
