摘要
Retrievable inferior vena cava (IVC) filters may be removed when no longer needed or left in place as permanent filters. Removal of any of the currently available optionally retrieved IVC filters becomes more difficult when they are tilted. Tilting of an IVC filter can also lead the tip of the filter to become embedded into the wall of the IVC. This report describes a method for removal of the Recovery IVC filter with use of rigid bronchoscopy forceps when the tip of the filter is tilted and embedded in the IVC.
