Penetration of Günther Tulip Filter Struts through an Introducer Sheath: Case Report and Safety Concerns
Journal of Vascular and Interventional Radiology, 08/19/09
Contractor SG et al. – The filter struts were seen to penetrate through the introducer sheath at deployment. This was believed to be secondary to a kink in the sheath at the site of venous entry and was due to the patient's nuchal obesity as well as his inability to turn his head to the opposite side. The introducer sheath was then placed through a long reinforced metal sheath through which the filter was then placed without complication.
