[Anesthetic management of a patient with deep venous thrombosis using temporary inferior vena cava filter].
A patient with deep venous thrombosis caused by a huge uterine leiomyoma underwent abdominal hysterectomy. To prevent pulmonary thromboembolism, the patient received anticoagulant therapy until 6 hr before surgery and temporary inferior vena cava filter was placed. A combination of preoperative anticoagulant therapy and the filter placement during perioperative period enabled this patient to be successfully-managed.
