In Reply to: Case 0400_05 -- Recurrent Pulmonary Embolus After IVC Filter Placement posted by Editor on April 04, 2000 at 17:01:44:
I preferentially place filters via the IJ; in the early days of filters the most common complication was thrombosis at the insertion site; silent in the IJ, not silent in the CFV.
No personal experience with SVC filters.
