What Causes Severe Swelling Of Leg After Filter Insertion?

My daughter died in October from a major blood clot from her let. Not too long ago a filter was inserted.
About 2 weeks before she passed away, the leg in which the filter was inserted began swelling to a point it was hard. Could this be the result of a faulty filter?
