Purpose: To prevent pulmonary embolism, some clinical situations only need a vena cava filter for several days, without the inconveniences of temporary vena cava filters in the short-medium term and without the drawbacks of permanent ones in the long term. We report our initial experience with a new definitive vena cava filter, easy to retrieve when it becomes unnecessary.
Material And Methods: From the beginning of January 1999 to December 2001, 18 ALN vena cava filters were deployed.

Department of Radiology, Medical University of Luebeck, Ratzeburger Allee 160, D-23538 Luebeck, Germany.
Purpose: To assess the efficacy of temporary vena cava filters in patients undergoing ultrahigh-dose streptokinase thrombolysis for iliocaval thrombosis and to determine therapy success and filter and therapy complications.
Methods: Forty-five patients were studied regarding extension and characteristics of thrombosis, duration, success, and complications of thrombolysis therapy, filter type, access route, pulmonary embolisms, and filter complications.
Results: Complete recanalization was achieved in 57% of cases.
