IVC Filters

November 12, 2016

Retrievable IVC filters are wire devices implanted in the vena cava, the body’s largest vein, to stop blood clots from reaching the heart and lungs. These devices are used when blood thinners are not an option. Risks associated with the retrievable IVC filters include migration, fracture and perforation, leading to embolism, organ damage and wrongful death. If you or a family member had an IVC implanted surgically and were injured, let our Huntsville dangerous medical device lawyers help you.
