The use of intravascular catheters for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes has resulted in an increased number of foreign body embolizations. The retained foreign body is a potential source of morbidity and mortality. In this communication we describe the different techniques that are used to remove foreign bodies from various locations within the heart or vascular tree. A brief review of the literature concerning the reported complications from retained foreign bodies is made to underline the importance of early percutaneous removal of these fragments.
