Background: Inferior vena cava filter (IVC) retrieval is most often routine but can be challenging with high morbidity in complex cases, especially those with an extended dwelling time. While risk of morbidity in complex retrievals is decreased with advanced filter retrieval techniques, deciding when and which to use these requires detailed pre-procedural planning. The purpose of our study was to evaluate patient-specific 3D printed anatomic IVC filter models for aiding complex IVC filter retrievals. Methods: All IVC filter retrieval patients between June 2021 and September 2022 at one academic medical hospital were prospectively screened. Nine met criteria for complex retrieval, and their CT images were used to 3D print patient-specific IVC and filter models. Models were used in pre-procedural planning and clinical utility was assessed using the Anatomic Model Utility Likert Questionnaire and estimations of the procedural and fluoroscopy time saved. Results: The usage of 3D printed models in pre-procedural planning had high clinical utility based on the Likert questionnaire (Anatomic Model Utility Points 366.7 ± 103.1). Using a model significantly increased confidence in planning (p = 0.03) and modified the treatment plan in seven cases. It also led to cost-efficient use of resources in the procedure suite with estimated reduction in procedure and fluoroscopy time of 29.0 [20.3] (p = 0.003) and 10.2 [6.7] (p = 0.002) minutes, respectively. Conclusion: 3D printed anatomic models for patients who require complex IVC filter retrieval demonstrated Likert-based high clinical utility and led to estimated reductions of procedural and fluoroscopy time.
