When a venous thrombosis an Inferior Vena Cava (IVC) filter is required

I need information on this. How the Vena Cava Filter is inserted, when does it come out, side affects, risks etc. Although I have never had blood clots (that I know of) Dr. Husted (Right Weight) believes I may be high risk for clots (because of no spleen) any information will be appreciated.
