Percutaneous retrieval of intracardiac foreign body with a novel technique

Estêvão Carvalho de Campos Martins et al. Guilherme Brenande Alves Faria

We report on the case of a patient with a long term vascular catheter embolized into the right ventricle. This case had unique characteristics since both ends of the catheter were inaccessible for snare, which made it difficult to capture them using conventional techniques. We describe a new method to retrieve the foreign body through its mid-point portion, using a single catheter with two independent snare and hook systems.
