    AbstractInferior vena cava filter placement could be helpful for venous thromboembolism prophylaxis. However its use in Europa is not common. Moreover inferior vena cava filter could reduce morbidity and mortality associated to pulmonary embolism. Patients who could benefit from filter placement should be selected.
