title: [A phlebocavographic evaluation of the size of the inferior vena cava for the placement of a DIL percutaneous caval filter. A preliminary study apropos of 10 cases].
abstract: With the DIL filter it is possible to make the partial interruption of the inferior vena cava percutaneously. It exists in three sizes corresponding to the variations of the size of the vena cava. The aim of this study is to estimate the real size of the vena cava by means of the radiological measures of the phlebocavography permitting--the correct choice of the size of the filter necessary for the optimisation of its efficiency--to avoid the difficulties of the placing.
