Abstract:
Vena cava filters (VCF) are extensively used in the prevention of pulmonary embolism, whose performances are closely linked to their structures. As cardiovascular interventional devices,VCFs have to be micro-invasive and have minimized adverse effects. This paper reviewed recent development of vena cava filters and discusses the relationship between their performances and structures.
