Inferior Vena Cava Filter Placement and Removal. 1  During Inferior Vena Cava (IVC) filter placement, a filtering device is placed within the IVC, a large vein in the abdomen that returns blood from the lower body to the heart. Blood clots in the veins of the legs and pelvis can occasionally travel to the lungs where they may cause a pulmonary embolism or blockage.
Inferior vena cava (IVC) filters are devices that are placed in the largest vein in the body with the intention of trapping clots before they reach the lungs. Since the early 2000s, retrievable IVC filters have been an option in addition to permanent filters.
