Comparative StudyA Comparison of Retrievability: Celect versus Option Filter.
To compare the retrievability of 2 potentially retrievable inferior vena cava filter devices. ⋯ Retrieval rates for the Celect and Option filters were not significantly different. However, retrieval of the Option filter required a significantly increased amount of fluoroscopy time compared with the Celect filter, and there was a significantly greater usage of adjunctive retrieval techniques for the Option filter. The Celect filter had a significantly higher rate of strut perforation.
