A 92-year-old woman with a brain tumor developed swelling of the left lower extremity. Venography showed considerable thrombi from the left common iliac vein to the femoral vein. Following implantation of a temporary inferior vena cava filter, catheter aspiration therapy and catheter-directed thrombolysis were performed. Venography after 3 days showed disappearance of the thrombi and an improvement in vein flow. A permanent inferior vena cava filter was implanted. Local intensive thrombectomy and thrombolysis by catheter together with a temporary inferior vena cava filter were effective treatments in this elderly patient with deep vein thrombosis.
