A blood clot that forms in a deep vein, usually in the leg, causes deep vein thrombosis (DVT), which manifests as pain, swelling, redness, and warmth. If the clot spreads to the lungs, DVT can result in dangerous side effects like pulmonary embolism. Anticoagulants and occasionally catheter-based removal are the mainstays of prevention and treatment.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

A catheter is placed into the vein where the clot is located in order to perform catheter-directed thrombolysis, or CDT. Through the catheter, thrombolytic (clot-dissolving) drugs are administered directly to the clot, aiding in its faster dissolution than conventional blood thinners alone.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

A tiny filter is inserted into the large vein that transports blood from the lower body to the heart, known as the inferior vena cava (IVC). In order to prevent pulmonary embolism, the filter captures blood clots that escape from leg veins before they can enter the lungs. Patients who have recurrent clots despite taking medication or who are unable to take blood thinners are frequently treated with this option. Depending on the clinical circumstance, the filter may be either temporary or permanent.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
