A temporary inferior vena cava (IVC) filter was placed in 4 patients. Patient 1 had an advanced testicular germ cell tumor with IVC tumor thrombosis, patient 2 presented with a large adrenal tumor with IVC tumor thrombosis, patient 3 was found to have deep vein thrombosis following grade 3b renal injury, and patient 4 was suffering severe SLE with renal vein thrombosis. The temporary inferior vena cava filter prevented pulmonary thromboembolism in all cases, and no adverse reaction was observed. Temporary inferior vena cava filter is safe and useful to prevent pulmonary thromboembolism associated with urological disorders.
