    A new vena caval filter is introduced percutaneously through the femoral vein. This filter was safely placed in five patients, and experimental removal in dogs showed promise.

    Area of Science:

    • Vascular surgery
    • Interventional radiology
    • Medical device development

    Background:

    • Inferior vena cava (IVC) filters are crucial for preventing pulmonary embolism.
    • Percutaneous introduction of IVC filters aims to minimize invasiveness.
    • Challenges exist in the safe and effective deployment and retrieval of IVC filters.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe a novel vena caval filter.
    • To evaluate the feasibility and safety of percutaneous femoral vein introduction.
    • To assess the potential for filter retrieval.

    Main Methods:

    • A new vena caval filter designed for percutaneous introduction via the femoral vein was developed.
    • The filter was implanted in five human patients.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Experimental studies involving filter retrieval in dogs were conducted one to two weeks post-insertion.

    • Main Results:

    • The vena caval filter was successfully introduced percutaneously in all five patients.
    • No complications were reported during the filter placement procedures.
    • Experimental retrieval of the filters in dogs was performed successfully within the specified timeframe.

    Conclusions:

    • The described vena caval filter can be safely introduced percutaneously via the femoral vein.
    • The device shows potential for effective use in clinical practice.
    • Further investigation into the retrieval mechanism is warranted based on canine studies.
