Purpose: To present percutaneous management of extensive clot trapped in a temporary inferior vena cava (IVC) filter. Case Report: A 20-year-old man with a large sacral tumor and left external iliac vein thrombosis had a wire-mounted Günther temporary filter (GTF) prophylactically placed in the infrarenal IVC prior to tumor resection. The 7-day postsurgical venogram prior to filter removal showed extensive clot trapped by the filter, as well as interval cephalic migration, with the filter tip now at the level of the renal veins. A Günther Tulip MReye (GTM) filter was deployed but not released above the renal veins to prevent clot migration during caudal withdrawal of the wire-mounted GTF. After creating enough space in the infrarenal IVC, the GTM was repositioned and fully released with its apex now below the renal veins. The GTF was then uneventfully removed. There was no clinical evidence for significant pulmonary embolism 12 months after placement. Conclusions: Cephalic migration of a clotted temporary IVC filter can be managed with intraprocedural protection against pulmonary embolism by first deploying a Günther Tulip filter above the renal veins, with subsequent advancement below the renal veins before temporary filter removal.

Objective: To report two cases of inferior vena cava (IVC) and iliac vein thrombosis secondary to expansive and ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms. Design: Case report. Setting: Angiology and Vascular Surgery Unit, Hospital Universitario Puerta del Mar, Cádiz, Spain. Patients: Patients with clinical and radiological evidence of IVC and iliac vein thrombosis secondary to a sealed rupture from expanding aortic aneurysms. Interventions: Surgical repair in one case and conservative management in the second case. Conclusions: Venous compression was relieved, avoiding the risk associated with anticoagulant therapy in the presence of an aortic aneurysm. Ultrasound scanning is useful in assessing deep venous thrombosis and detecting compressive masses such as aortic and iliac aneurysms. Inappropriate management of patients with venous obstruction from undiagnosed arterial aneurysms may cause serious complications.

Spontaneous rupture of the external iliac vein associated with a May–Thurner syndrome is infrequent, particularly in men. We report a case of previously healthy 73-year-old man with a left iliac vein thrombosis, who presented a large lower left abdominal hematoma of sudden-unset. Emergent laparotomy revealed a 3-cm longitudinal tear in the left external iliac vein, which was repaired primarily. Patient's recovery was uneventful. Possible etiological factors have been identified as venous hypertension due to iliac vein thrombosis associated with Cockett syndrome, as well as inflammatory venous wall. Some other estrogenic factors could explain female preponderance of the event.
