title: [Complications of implantation of the cava filter "Réptéla"].
abstract: The article describes a complication resulting from the implantation of a cava-filter for roentgen endovascular prophylactics of thromboembolism of the pulmonary artery (REPTEPA) to a 68 years old woman with recurring thromboembolism of the pulmonary artery, floating thrombus of the right iliac vein. An attempt to disconnect the cava-filter from the applicator after implantation proved to be unsuccessful which was followed by urgent operation: marginal resection of the vena cava inferior with the cava-filter, suture of the vein, cava plication. The nearest postoperative period was complicated by thrombosis of the plication zone. The examination in 6 months has shown the formation of the syndrome of the vena cava inferior.
