Exemption number e2016032.William cook (b)(4) (manufacturer) is submitting this report on behalf of cook medical incorporated (cmi) (importer).Manufacturer reference # (b)(4).Corrected data: adverse event to product problem.Serious injury to malfunction.It has not been possible to further investigate or evaluate this alleged event based on the limited information provided to date via the operative note stating a celect filter was implanted and experienced tilt, vena cava perforation and unable to be retrieved.Cook will reopen its investigation if further information is received.Vena cava wall perforation is a known potential complication of vena cava filters.Both symptomatic and asymptomatic events have been reported.Among other causes, vena cava wall perforation may inadvertently be initiated by improper deployment, excessive force or manipulations near an implanted filter (e.G., a surgical procedure in the vicinity of a filter) and (or) procedures that involve other devices being passed through an in situ filter.There is a current debate in the published scientific literature on a differentiation between ivc wall perforation with and without clinical sequelae.E.G.Filter legs may be outside the contrast lumen on imaging without actually perforating the ivc wall (known as tenting) and with no clinical sequelae.In contrast, perforation of adjacent organs is reported with clinical sequelae.Filter tilt is a known risk in relation to filter implant reported in the published scientific literature and may occur during placement or during implanting period.Filter retrieval is occasionally difficult.This is well-known from published scientific literature where filter retrievals are referred to as simple vs.Complex.Several case reports published in scientific literature describe complex cases with successful endovascular filter retrievals using additional, advanced techniques.
