PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the initial clinical efficacy of a retrieval stent filter for the management of @entity3181 complicated with @entity715 . DESCRIPTION: The retrieval stent filter consists of two parts (ie, the filter and the Z-stent). The filter was composed of seven legs arranged in the shape of a cone with a retrieval hook at its apex. The filter and the Z-stent were connected with each other, and the retrieval of the stent filter was performed with an Amplatz gooseneck snare (MicroVena [ @entity8417 Lake, MN]). Eight consecutive @entity1 were treated with the stent filters. EVALUATION: The stent filter placement was technically successful in all @entity1 . Inferior vena cavography demonstrated that all of the inferior vena cavae were patent without incidental @entity1151 after deploying the stent filter. A 3-11 months follow-up study showed that all of the stent filters were removed after approximately 5 to 24 days of placement. All @entity1 were still alive with resolution of the symptoms. CONCLUSIONS: The use of a retrieval stent filter proved to be expedient, safe, and effective in the treatment of @entity3181 complicated with @entity715 .
