Signs of high embolic risk in iliocaval floating thrombi
There are certain risk factors in patients with deep vein thrombosis, iliocaval floating thrombus and no contraindications to anticoagulation (clot length >70 mm, minimum diameter of floating clot divided into diameter of clot attachment <30% and large lateral tributary near the neck of the thrombus). These ones should probably be classified as a group with extremely high risk of fatal pulmonary embolism and need for endovascular prophylaxis of venous thromboembolic complications (cava filter implantation) in addition to anticoagulation.
