description Temporary interruption of the inferior vena cava is the recommended treatment to prevent pulmonary embolism in patients with venous thromboembolism (VTE) and active contraindications for therapeutic anticoagulation. In patients with mega cava (diameter >30 mm), temporary inferior vena cava filters are contraindicated. In the present report, we have described the successful placement and retrieval of bilateral iliac vein filters in two patients with VTE, mega cava, and active contraindications for therapeutic anticoagulation. At the last follow-up, both patients had recovered without recurrent VTE and had had all filters successfully retrieved without complications.
