Abstract	With the expanded use of IVC filters, cardiovascular surgeons and interventionalists should be aware of the clinical presentation and management of IVC filter fracture and migration to the heart. There appears to be a consensus in the literature that observation and close follow up are appropriate options for asymptomatic patients. In addition, symptomatic patients with pericardial effusion may benefit from open-heart surgery. Cardiovascular compromise such as cardiac tamponade should be managed with open surgery. We encourage the continued publication of these challenging cases; more experience and data are still needed.
