Baylor Akhavan, Brian Kerlin, Rachel Soong, Alexander Kieger, and Brandon Chen (all Medicine) published the peer-reviewed case report, “Inferior Vena Cava Filter Retrieval with Radial Jaw Biopsy Forceps: A Case Report,” in AME Case Reports in June 2026. The report presents an innovative approach to the retrieval of a challenging inferior vena cava (IVC) filter using radial jaw biopsy forceps. The authors describe the technical approach and its potential utility as an alternative method for complex IVC filter retrieval, contributing to the evolving techniques available in interventional radiology for managing difficult filter removals.
