A model of intra-filter and IVC thrombosis 21 days post creation. a Immediate venography revealed a filter in the IVC. b The venography demonstrated successful creation of intra-filter and IVC thrombosis. Note that the filter was fully buried in the thrombus and dimly displayed (black arrow). c The venography repeated at 21 days revealed totally thrombotic occluded filter and IVC (black arrow) and coupling collateral veins. d The AngioJet catheter worked in the filter basket under the fluoroscopy guidance (black arrow). e The venography following AngioJet thrombectomy revealed refractory thrombus removal

To assess the feasibility of creating swine model of filter-assisted caval thrombosis and to evaluate the efficacy in removing clot in this model using rheolytic thrombectomy. The model was created by implanting a filter into the inferior vena cava followed by injection of autologous thrombus. Rheolytic thrombectomy was performed for all models to...
