“…39 Therefore, it is important to coordinate patient care between the interventional team and the ordering service to ensure proper filter removal once the patient can be anticoagulated. 42 The primary clinical utility of the IVC filter is to prevent fatal PE. However, there exists a paucity of high-quality data examining the safety, efficacy, and mortality benefit of IVC filter in GI cancer patients.…”

Gastrointestinal malignancy encompasses a wide range of disease processes. Its incidence and mortality rate rank among the highest of all cancers. Venous thromboembolic disease is a common complication of gastrointestinal malignancy. Anticoagulation remains the first-line therapy. However, for patients who cannot tolerate or have failed anticoagulation, inferior vena cava (IVC) filter placement may be an option. Furthermore, to improve symptom resolution and reduce the severity of postthrombotic syndrome, catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) may be an option. Recent randomized trials including the ATTRACT (Acute Venous Thrombosis: Thrombus Removal with Adjunctive Catheter-Directed Thrombolysis) trial have shed new light on the efficacy and safety of CDT and related methods. Overall, the decision to proceed with IVC filter placement or CDT must be individualized.

In this study, a new type of biodegradable inferior vena cava filter was designed and prepared based on polylactic acid. In addition to having the main functions of a common filter, it is also completely biodegradable in the human body without secondary surgical removal. The changes of surface morphology, molecular weight, viscosity, and radial support strength with degradation time were systematically investigated via degradation experiments in vitro. The results of crimping and expansion tests of the filter showed that reducing the crimping time and increasing the release time make it easier for the filter to recover to its original diameter. Further, the results of a thrombus capture experiment in vitro showed that the thrombus filtration ratio for the filter with double-layer connection structure is 90%.
