IVC (Inferior Vena Cava) filters are medical devices implanted to prevent blood clots from traveling to the lungs. Lawsuits allege these filters can fracture, migrate, tilt, and perforate blood vessels or organs.
The FDA issued safety communications warning that retrievable filters should be removed once the clot risk passes. Major manufacturers including Cook Medical and Bard have settled thousands of cases.
