    A Mobin-Uddin-Filter was successfully removed from the pulmonary artery along with thrombi. This case highlights filter retrieval after embolisation and discusses proper placement to avoid complications.

    Area of Science:

    • Cardiovascular Surgery
    • Interventional Radiology
    • Pulmonary Medicine

    Background:

    • Inferior Vena Cava (IVC) filters are used to prevent pulmonary embolism.
    • Filter embolisation can lead to serious complications.
    • Retrieval of embolised filters is challenging but feasible.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a case of a retrieved embolised Mobin-Uddin-Filter.
    • To discuss the indications for IVC filter placement.
    • To review strategies for avoiding filter malposition and ensuring safe retrieval.

    Main Methods:

    • A 28 mm Mobin-Uddin-Filter embolised into the right pulmonary artery was extracted.
    • Surgical retrieval was performed via a right thoracotomy.
    • The filter and associated thrombi were successfully removed.

    Main Results:

    • The embolised Mobin-Uddin-Filter and thrombi were completely extracted.
    • The retrieval procedure via thoracotomy was technically successful.
    • No immediate complications were reported during the extraction.

    Conclusions:

    • Surgical extraction of an embolised Mobin-Uddin-Filter is a viable option.
    • Careful patient selection and procedural planning are crucial for IVC filter placement.
    • The decision for filter retrieval post-embolisation requires careful consideration of risks and benefits.
