Inferior vena cava (IVC) filters are a relatively safe and effective treatment designed to prevent pulmonary emboli. Late complications of IVC filters include filter migration, tilting, strut fracture, strut perforation, and IVC thrombosis. We present a case of a 67-year-old male undergoing a right robotic-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy whose IVC filter strut had perforated the vena caval wall.
下腔静脉(IVC)过滤器是一种相对安全有效的治疗方法,旨在预防肺栓塞。IVC 过滤器的晚期并发症包括过滤器迁移、倾斜、支柱断裂、支柱穿孔和 IVC 血栓形成。我们报告了一例 67 岁男性患者,在接受右侧机器人辅助腹腔镜部分肾切除术时,IVC 过滤器支柱穿透了腔静脉壁。
