Are there any nerves that run around the inferior vena cava?

Question

I had an inferior vena cava filter placed in 2004, about 6 weeks after placement there was a retrieval attempt.
since that retreivel attempt i have had on and off intense sharp pain in my lower back and inside the hip on my right side. (kid of hard to pin point the location of the pain). Is it possible one of the feet of the vena cava filter is poking through the vena cava (or at least bulgin it out) and irritating a nerve leading to the hip / lower back?

Answer 1

The inferior vena cava does run along the spinal column. Any injury to that area could cause pain in the lower back and hip.
