Purpose: Preliminary testing of a new biodegradable inferior vena cava filter in a canine model. Methods: The biodegradable filter consisted of two parts, a filter cone and a stent. The filter cone was constructed of six polyglycolic acid polymer strands anchored to a handmade absorbable stent. Central inferior vena cava fixation was accomplished by the absorbable stent, which was made of polycaprolactone. Device insertion was performed through a 9F sheath under ultrasound guidance on 10 adult beagles. The filters were operatively retrieved at 6 weeks after implantation. The inferior venae cavae were subsequently analyzed grossly and using light microscopy. Results: None of the 10 beagles had abnormal vital signs. All of the 10 filters migrated cephalad approximately |
