What Are IVC Filters?

Inferior vena cava (IVC) filters are small, cage-like devices that are implanted into the vein to prevent blood clots from reaching the lungs. They are commonly used in patients who are at risk of pulmonary embolism, such as those who have undergone surgery or suffer from deep vein thrombosis. While these filters can be life-saving when they function properly, there have been numerous reports of serious complications and failures associated with their use.

Common Complications of IVC Filters

IVC filters have been linked to a range of serious complications, including:

  • Device migration
  • Filter fracture
  • Perforation of the veins or organs
  • Blood clots
  • Infection
  • Difficulty removing the device

These complications can lead to severe injuries and even death. If you have experienced any of these complications or other adverse effects from an IVC filter, it is important to seek legal guidance as soon as possible.
