Abstract
The incidence of iatrogenic cardiovascular foreign bodies is increasing. The most common source is a fragment of an in-dwelling venous catheter. These objects have resulted in severe sequelae and death in many instances. Most should be removed. Percutaneous extraction is the method of choice. Surgery should be reserved for cases with failed percutaneous extraction.
