Successful retrieval of dislocated inferior vena cava filter using double vascular sheaths docking technology: case report

摘要

Combination of double sheaths docking technique and Loop-Snare technique to retrieve the IVC filter. (A) One leg of the filter is dislocated and bent cephalad. (B-C) use of disposable biopsy forceps to retrieve the dislocated filter leg into an 8F vascular sheath, (D) push the 13F vascular sheath downwards to complete the docking of the two vascular sheaths and retrieve the filter, (E-F) model for double sheaths docking technique to retrieve the filter. * 8F sheath; # 13F sheath; → 0.035 in. hydrophilic guide wire
