ABSTRACT
Intravascular catheter embolism is common and the most important complication of subclavian catheterization. The catheter fragment can lead to pulmonary embolism, vascular perforation, sepsis, arrhythmia, and even death. The intravascular foreign body can be removed using surgical or non-surgical methods. With technological advances, the percutaneous retrieval of intravascular foreign bodies has become a relatively common procedure. A commonly used method for retrieving intravascular foreign bodies is the loop snare. Sometimes biopsy forceps can be used. We experienced a case of non-surgical retrieval of an intravascular foreign body. We used the standard loop snare technique to remove a 5-cm catheter fragment from the left pulmonary artery.
