Defective IVC Filters
Inferior vena cava (IVC) filters are implanted to prevent blood clots in patients who cannot take blood thinners. Defective IVC filters have led to serious and potentially life-threatening complications including deep vein thrombosis, migration of the filter to other parts of the body, and perforation of the inferior vena cava.
Individuals impacted by a defective IVC filter may be eligible to file a medical device lawsuit. Litigation has included the multidistrict litigation In re Cook Medical, Inc, IVC Filters Marketing, Sales Practices and Products Liability Litigation.
