Abstract

Deep venous thrombosis (DVT) may result in fatal pulmonary thromboembolism. Inferior vena cava filters are used to prevent thromboembolic events in patients who are not eligible for anticoagulant therapy. However, the major disadvantage of these filters is they migrate to the pulmonary artery. In this article, we report the case of a 68-year-old female patient for whom the inferior vena cava filter accidentally expanded after it migrated to the pulmonary artery.

Özet

Derin ven trombozu (DVT), ölümcül pulmoner tromboembolizm ile sonuçlanabilir. Antikoagülan tedaviye uygun olmayan hastalarda vena cava inferior filtresi tromboembolik olayları önlemek için kullanılmaktadır. Ancak bu filtrelerin en büyük dezavantajı pulmoner artere yer değiştirmesidir. Bu yazıda, vena cava inferior filtresi pulmoner artere yer değiştirdikten sonra kazara açılan 68 yaşında bir kadın olgu sunuldu.
