Abstract
Patent foramen ovale (PFO) concerns nearly a quarter of the general population and incidence may reach up to 50% in patients with cryptogenic stroke. Recent randomized clinical trials confirmed that percutaneous closure of PFO-related stroke reduces the risk of embolic event recurrence. PFO also comes into play in other pathogenic conditions, such as migraine, decompression sickness or platypnea-orthodeoxia syndrome, where the heterogeneity of patients is high and evidence for closure is less well-documented. In this review, we describe the current indications for PFO percutaneous closure and the remaining challenges, and try to provide future directions regarding the technique and its indications.

Omedè P, Bocchino PP, De Filippo O, D’Ascenzo F. Patent foramen ovale closure in a patient with vena cava filter: a case report. Eur Heart J Case Rep 2021; 5:ytab284. [PMID: 34377917 PMCID: PMC8343425 DOI: 10.1093/ehjcr/ytab284] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/24/2021] [Revised: 02/23/2021] [Accepted: 06/30/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Background The presence of a patent foramen ovale (PFO) is associated with several medical conditions, including cryptogenic left circulation thromboembolism. PFO closure was demonstrated to reduce recurrent ischaemic stroke in patients with prior cryptogenic stroke. The presence of an inferior vena cava filter (IVCF), however, may impede a transfemoral PFO closure procedure. Case summary We describe the case of a 50-year-old man with a PFO suffering from ischaemic stroke from paradoxical thromboembolism originating from deep vein thrombosis and requiring an IVCF. After deep vein thrombosis resolution, due to the high risk of stroke recurrences, the patient was recommended PFO closure. IVCF retrieval by the interventional radiologist was first attempted but failed. A transfemoral PFO closure procedure was thus endeavoured with the IVCF in place and was successful. The patient was then discharged in good clinical status and no stroke recurrences were reported at 5 months follow-up. Discussion Albeit an IVCF provides benefit in patients with recurrent thromboembolic events despite adequate anticoagulation therapy, its presence may hinder interventional procedures necessitating delivery systems to advance through the inferior vena cava. We reported on a successful PFO closure procedure via a femoral venous access in a patient with an IVCF in place, thus demonstrating the feasibility of advancing delivery systems through an IVCF. As interventional procedures requiring the advancement of delivery systems through the inferior vena cava are becoming increasingly common, the feasibility of IVCF crossing with catheters and delivery systems alike paves the way for novel interventional possibilities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transfemoral venous access (TFV) is the cornerstone of minimally invasive cardiac procedures. Although the presence of inferior vena cava filters (IVCFs) was considered a relative contraindication to TFV procedures, small experiences have suggested safety. We conducted a systematic review of the available literature on cardiac procedural success of TFV with IVCF in-situ. METHODS Two independent reviewers searched PubMed, EMBASE, SCOPUS, and Google Scholar from inception to October 2020 for studies that reported outcomes in patients with IVCFs undergoing TFV for invasive cardiac procedures. We investigated a primary outcome of acute procedural success and reviewed the pooled data for patient demographics, procedural complications, types of IVCF, IVCF dwell time, and procedural specifics. RESULTS Out of the 120 studies initially screened, 8 studies were used in the final analysis with a total of 100 patients who underwent 110 procedures. The most common IVCF was the Greenfield Filter (36%), 60% of patients were males and the mean age was 67.8 years. The overall pooled incidence of acute procedural success was 95.45% (95% confidence interval = 89.54-98.1) with no heterogeneity (I2 = 0%, p = 1) and there were no reported filter-related complications. CONCLUSION This systematic review is the largest study of its kind to demonstrate the safety and feasibility of TFV access in a variety of cardiac procedures in the presence of IVCF.

Abstract
Percutaneous closure of a patent foramen ovale (PFO) was successfully performed via the left axillary vein in a 52-year-old female with a history of left posterior cerebral artery embolic cerebrovascular accident (CVA) and inferior vena cava (IVC) interruption with a Simon Nitinol Filter precluding standard access via the common femoral vein. Utilizing a 6 French Amplatzer 180 degrees patent ductus arteriosus delivery sheath and a 25-mm Amplatzer Cribriform occluder, the PFO was successfully closed utilizing general anesthesia and transesophageal echocardiography guidance. This case demonstrates the advantages of the axillary vein approach over the internal jugular or hepatic vein approach in patients with anatomy precluding standard percutaneous closure.

Abstract
The presence of a filter in the inferior vena cava (IVC) to prevent pulmonary embolism from lower extremity deep vein thrombosis has traditionally been a contraindication for venous catheterization from the femoral vein. Certain interventional procedures require femoral access and occasionally, patients with IVC filters require these procedures. The authors report two such patients, one with a Greenfield filter requiring balloon mitral valvuloplasty and one with a Trapease filter requiring atrial septostomy. These cases demonstrate the technical feasibility of interventions across vena cava filters. Based on this experience and a review of the literature we describe in detail the techniques that allowed the procedures to be performed safely and successfully.
