Sumario:INTRODUCTION: A 55 year old man who suffered from recurrent traumatic multi-organ bleeding presented with deterioration in kidney function and pulmonary embolism caused by a newly diagnosed renal vein thrombosis during hospitalisation. REPORT: Complete clot removal was performed successfully by catheter directed aspiration. Thrombotic emboli were captured in a temporary filter device. A post-interventional computed tomography scan showed full restoration of the occluded renal vein. DISCUSSION: Use of a temporary catheter based vena cava filter (Capturex) during catheter directed thrombectomy is safe and should be considered to prevent thrombo-embolism in selected cases when any rheolytic therapy is contraindicated.
