Effects of reverse deployment of cone-shaped vena cava filter on improvements in hemodynamic performance in vena cava
Abstract Background Cone-shaped vena cava filters (VCFs) are widely used to treat venous thromboembolism. However, in the long term, the problem of occlusion persists even after the filter is deployed. A previous study hypothesized that the reverse deployment of a cone-shaped VCFs may prevent filter...
